Entry point for robostudio code

[mohsafwat23]

I was trying the example in robot_setup_manual.md. However, I'm unable to communicate the virtual controller with the example.py.

Is there an entry point to the Rapid program, because I don't see the main() function?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

The configuration files loaded during the installation process change the entry point procedures. The three entry points are motion_program_main, motion_program_logger_main, and error_reporter.

What is the exact error message you are seeing?

A common problem is another program using port 80, which is needed by the virtual controller. What do you see if you go to http://127.0.0.1:80 in a browser?

Thanks for the reply!

The entry point I used is motion_program_main, and here is the error I get

The http://127.0.0.1:80 gets established when I run the python code.

What do you see when you connect to http://127.0.0.1:80 when Robot Studio is not running?

The Python code will start the RAPID program when you execute a motion program. Do not press start yourself.

I get this site can't be reached and the python code gets interrupted when it is running.

You are using Robot Ware 6.13 or 6.14 on virtual IRC5? If you open the Robot Studio project and see the virtual controller is ready, the Python example still returns an error if you try to run it? (Don't press "Start" in Robot Studio, Python will start the task)
