Weird issue

Hi guys.
I am not sure where to put this query nor if it has been approached and answered before as I don't really know what to search for.

The issue I have is a weird one of the program not moving any axis.
I can run a stepconf wizard and test every axis fine, I have all movement.
I start Axis gui and switch on, all axis have movement using keyboard, Shift and arrow keys take X and Y to soft limits at full speed.
Run a code and I get no movement?
My first thoughts were that it happened after an update of software but I have same issue from a live system.
I booted into linuxcnc from my original install media to live system, ran stepconf and tested all axis as working. Ran the gui and all moves on the keys fine start the code and all is dead.
No pause, no stop, no E-stop everything says it's working and simulator is tracking but but no physical movement.

Any suggestions?

To be clear you are saying when you start linuxcnc you can jog the machine around and the axis / motors all move but when you run a program they do not?

Do MDI commands such as g0 and g1 work?

This might be a bit basic but are you actually giving it a feed rate ie F350 ish

Is anything connected to motion.spindle-at-speed?
How about motion.adaptive feed?

I would expect that to also stop the movement on the screen, where the first post suggest the program is running there.

No pause, no stop, no E-stop everything says it's working and simulator is tracking but but no physical movement.

Sorry for not getting back sooner, other issues became more important and I missed out on tinterweb connection.
Some good advise and I will act on it to see if I can determine the fault.
I'll let you know when I have tried it, many thanks for the help so far.

And yes the program continues to run with no physical movement to the steppers.
Spindle is on independent supply board and still working with it's own supply.
Simply X,Y,Z,A setup relying on soft stops, no hard switches installed at the moment

I have now and it is identical from what I have read, will act on it and get back to you, cheers.

Haven't tried that one yet but will do.

Did you change anything in the hal file?

No. And I have created new machines with new stepconf and nothing has worked so far, I will look into this thanks.

Many thanks for all your input, I have it working again.
I ran a new stepconf wizard and changed the pin outs to resemble the actual machine in its current state.
Changed the estop, spindle and amp to unused and it started whizzing away, all is good again.
