Actionlib client unable to cancel goals
Hello, I'm trying out the actionlib SimpleActionClient and SimpleActionServer tutorials in python. Here is a small relevant snippet in my client:
self.client = actionlib.SimpleActionClient(server_node_name, actionlib_tuts.msg.fibonacciAction)
some code
self.client.send_goal(goal)
finished_before_timeout = self.client.wait_for_result()
if not finished_before_timeout:
self.client.cancel_all_goals()
rospy.logerr("Sent cancel")
In my server, I have
if self._as.is_preempt_requested():
inside my execute_cb
loop
Now, after sending a goal from the client, when I interrupt it with ctrl+c
, the if
statement in the server is not getting triggered. The client prints out Sent cancel
, but the server does not catch it.
How do I cancel a goal using SimpleActionClient.
I also tried cancel_goal
instead of cancel_all_goals
I feel like I'm missing something important here.
Thanks

Can you please share the server and client as a minimal reproducible example?
