crash on new machine: terminate called after throwing an ins

Post by fferri »

I got a new machine, installed Ubuntu 14.04.2, and V-REP 3.2.0rev6.

When launching V-REP, it crashes with this error:

Code: Select all

$ ./vrep.sh
Add-on script 'vrepAddOnScript-addOnScriptDemo.lua' was loaded.
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::exception'
  what():  std::exception

Running in the debugger to get a stacktrace:

This is very strange, I got the same version of V-REP on the same version of Ubuntu on another machine, and works fine.

Any ideas?

Hello,

can you try to turn on all debugging info? You can do this in file system/usrset.txt. Beware that when outputting debug info, V-REP will become very slow, so do not forget to turn it off later on again.

Cheers

do you have the folder system? How did you install V-REP?

Code: Select all

$ ls -1 /opt/V-REP_PRO_EDU_V3_2_0_rev6_64_Linux/system/
defaultContactCallbackScript.txt

Ok, if you modify a user setting, the file will be generated. Check for instance [Menu bar --> Help --> Debug --> Debug internal...], which will generate the file.

I got to this page after encountering the same error message (vrep std exception).

My installation is the same as the OP, with V-REP in /opt.

It happens that the V-REP folder should be writable by the current user.
The installation in /opt is usually done so that all user can run V-REP, in this case the folder should have lighter permissions :

Code: Select all

sudo chmod -R a+rwX /opt/vrep
