We are building a new system and have used the same .rsc PiCtory setup file from an existing system that works fine. However, when we try to run the our software we get the following warnings and error:

Hi saardrimer!

Your cycle loop function takes to long to execute - Maybe because of a .sleep or .wait or things like that. If you are using the cyclelooop, the cycle function must return in the given cycle time.

Do you have a code example you are using?


Thanks for the clarification! I was ...

sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/mariadb-common.list

Hello
