Hi all

This used to work on version 2.7. i am upgrading to 2.8 and now i cant get it to work.
I get the following error

postgui_call_list.hal:10: Pin 'halui.mdi-command-00' does not exist

Can someone point out my mistake?
Files attached.

Thank you

Hi,

If you have enabled Halui, you could see the port and pins in halshow before even adding a pin in your
postgui_call_list.hal file.

If you see halui is working, then you can try to connect it in your halfile.

I managed to get it to work.
I re-ran stepconfig and used that to install HALUI and Pyvcp

Now it works. just it cant find my 0<files> now.

If they were in the config folder then they should be in a backup folder in there after a 2.8 conversion.

If they were i the nc_files folder, then they should still be there.

Unless you did a clean install of OS and LinuxCNC in which case they will be gone unless you keep backups.

All fixed.

I made the mistake of calling my subroutines o100.ngc
when the should be 100.ngc
