I bet it is because it is not ran as a remap.

I will do some more testing making a simpler remap.py file and let you know what I find out.

Thanks for the feedback. It will probably be next week before I get much more done on this. Other priorities and vacation.

have you added:
LOG_LEVEL = 1000
to the INI under [PYTHON]?

Then run from a terminal.
You may get some more info.
If it takes linuxcnc longer to load, then I would guess it's not finding the subroutines.

This looks suspicious:
SUBROUTINE_PATH = Subroutines:../../nc_files/examples/probe/basic_probe/macros/

is the nc_files folder really two levels down from your config folder? Is the examples link in the nc_files folder?

Just getting back to this a week later. . .

Chris, the path is correct. It is two levels down.

linuxcnc/nc-files
linuxcnc/configs/Holloway_Sprayball_Machine

I added the LOG_LEVEL = 1000 to the python section of the .ini file. Where is this log level impacting the logging. All remains the same in the terminal window.

I am going to start with a very basic remap and see if I can make it work.

I will report back soon. I hope. Phone calls. . .

So I stripped the remap code down to just calling the stdglue change_prolog and change_epilog.

Still having the same issue. GUI is unresponsive to LinuxCNC.

I get this message
halui: emcCommandSend: no echo from Task after 5.000 seconds

If I remove everything from the remap code it works fine. The Gui works with this code.

def M6_Remap_sbm(self, **words):
    print("M6_Remap_sbm python code running.")
    # --------------------------------------------------
    # if in preview mode exit without doing anything and all ok
    # ----------------------------------------------------------
    if self.task == 0:
        return INTERP_OK
    else:
        return INTERP_OK

Ok, so I uncommented the stdglue functions and now it works with this.

def M6_Remap_sbm(self, **words):
    print("M6_Remap_sbm python code running.")
    # --------------------------------------------------
    # if in preview mode exit without doing anything and all ok
    # ----------------------------------------------------------
    if self.task == 0:
        return INTERP_OK
    else:
        change_prolog(self, **words)

        change_epilog(self, **words)
        return INTERP_OK

and it works fine.

I will keep testing. Maybe I fixed the issue unintentionally.

All seems to be good now. I am adding my remap code back in piece by piece and things are looking good.

Not sure what the culprit line was but something in the remap code was causing a ruckus.
