rtapi -- uspace -- "Using POSIX non-realtime"

Hi,
I have the same problem in a: Debian 10 4.19.0-14-rt-amd64 kernel.
Where can I check the last patch available?
Thanks a lot!

Are you sure that you have the same issue as this thread is discussing?

Did you compile the RT kernel yourself? (And, if so,. why?)

Did you compile linuxCNC yourself? (and, if so, why?)

What does uname -a say?

Hi Andy, Thaks for reply!

I'm a beginner and have this one:

Firstly I tried to install:

"LinuxCNC 2.8.0 Debian 10 Buster PREEMPT-RT ISO"
from the main page of download, but I had to install the headers and I wasn't able to find the headers for the kernel of this versión and installed the newer ones.

Thanks a lot!!

In that case it does sound like you forgot

./configure --with-realtime=uspace

Hi andy
I have found a text file with the terminal out from when I did it.
Itś more, I had to do several times due to other problems and the first ones I had to apply:

configure --with-realtime=uspace --enable-non-distributable=yes

Is it the Kernel right?

V-max

It is likely that the underlying problem is that you did "sudo make" so the ownership of you RIP install is wrong.

It should be

make
sudo make setuid

I would suggest cleaning up and trying again.

sudo make clean
make clean
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-realtime=uspace

Hi Andy

Done but...

During the first try to start Linuxcnc there is not Posix note.
I do chmod 777 to rtapi_app and appear again the Posix note.

Thanks.

seem you missed command "sudo make setuid" after make lcnc

You should not need to chmod anything.

"sudo make setuid" changes some permissions, but that is all that should be changed, and you should use the script, not do it by hand.

Hi andy

Thanks a lot for your help and sorry for the delay, I'm in a hurry lately.

I did CHMOD because I had permission problems:

avc@avc:~/LinuxCncRip/src$ sudo make setuid
chown root ../bin/rtapi_app
chmod 4750 ../bin/rtapi_app
chown root ../bin/linuxcnc_module_helper
chmod 4750 ../bin/linuxcnc_module_helper
avc@avc:~/LinuxCncRip/src$ cd ..
avc@avc:~/LinuxCncRip$ cd scripts/
avc@avc:~/LinuxCncRip/scripts$ . ./rip-environment
