Problems with Notebook

Guys

The monitor and control page works fine. I get to the notebooks, specifically the “Discover the Poppy Ergo Jr” and I get this
in ()
1 from pypot.creatures import PoppyErgoJr
2
----> 3 poppy = PoppyErgoJr()

/home/poppy/miniconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pypot/creatures/abstractcreature.pyc in new(cls, base_path, config, simulator, scene, host, port, id, use_snap, snap_host, snap_port, snap_quiet, use_http, http_host, http_port, http_quiet, use_remote, remote_host, remote_port, use_ws, ws_host, ws_port, start_background_services, sync, **extra)
117 logger.warning(‘Init fail: {}’.format(str(e)))
118 else:
–> 119 raise OSError(‘Could not initalize robot!’)
120 poppy_creature.simulated = False
121

OSError: Could not initalize robot!

Any ideas what’s going wrong?

Thanks
Ian

Hi,
You probably have an unplugged motor a misconfigured one.

However, there is a bug with your version that hide the correct error message. You can fix this by updating the robot. To do so, make sure the robot is connected to internet, and click on “configure the robot” from the web interface, and then update.
After that you will have a clearer message.

okay, so the motors work okay in the other modes, just not the notebook.

I ran the update, I left it over an hour, so I think it finished, there was no feed back to tell

This is what I get now

hello @Ianadan,

For my robot I use “from poppy.creatures import Nameofrobot”.
Do you have already tried this ?
