Calibration no launch from Gscreen

Try as i might, when I click the calibration button in gscreen industrial, nothing happens.
Halshow and the rest of the buttons work fine.
Calibration worked in axis.
Any ideas anyone?


# opens halshow
def on_halshow(self,*args):
print "halshow",TCLPATH
p = os.popen("tclsh %s/bin/halshow.tcl -- -ini %s &" % (TCLPATH,self.inipath))

# opens the calibration program
def on_calibration(self,*args):
print "calibration --%s"% self.inipath
p = os.popen("tclsh %s/bin/emccalib.tcl -- -ini %s > /dev/null &" % (TCLPATH,self.inipath),"w")

If you run from a terminal does the text 'calibration - bla bla bla' show up?

Hi Chris

I found the problem.

My config folder name had spaces in it, which gscreen didnt like.

changed folder name with underscores, now it works fine.

Its always the simple ones that get ya!

FYI ..the error .....

calibration --/home/roger/linuxcnc/configs/AP C axis test/rog_test_1.ini
