Hello,

I have installed the dependencies and the python module via pip as described here (www.qtpyvcp.com/install/quick_start.html)
No errors were displayed.

Now I expected to find the corresponding sim configs here: ~/linuxcnc/configs/sim.qtpyvcp.
But no folder was generated.

I tried the installation with my user and as root, both did not work.

Is it known, is there a trick to it?
I use Debian Buster and LinuxCNC 2.9.

Best regards
Robert

The sample configs get copied from the base install to your configs folder when you pick them in the config picker (expand the "sample configs" section.

Thanks for the help,

I have now actually found the folder qtdragon under qtvcp_screens with the setup i was looking for.

I expected a folder qtpyvcp.

You can copy the examples from github.com/kcjengr/qtpyvcp/tree/master/examples to your linuxcnc/configs directory.

Hello CnCBuddies,
I have the same issue Debian 9 (Stretch) / LinuxCNC 2.9 on an other fresh install.

Followed the Quick Start guide from Kurt till:
This will install QtPyVCP along with the examples, and will add QtPyVCP specific sim configs to ~/linuxcnc/configs/sim.qtpyvcp.

In LinuxCNC I don't see the QtPyVCP map in Sample Configurations/Sim/

Please how can I get the map back in the Sample Configurations with the Install?

Regards,
Haarie

Haarie,

I just tested `$ pip install qtpyvcp` and it did install the sim.qtpyvcp directory in my ~/linuxcnc/configs directory as it should. But it seems like at least you and romeofox har having problems with it working.

Can you please uninstall qtpyvcp with `pip uninstall qtpyvcp` and then reinstall it with `pip install qtpyvcp --no-deps` and paste the output here? The --no-deps is just to limit the output to that from qtpyvcp since you already have the deps installed.

Thanks,
Kurt

Haarie,

I just thought of something, could you trying installing with `pip install qtpyvcp --no-deps --no-cache-dir` and see if that works?
