I’m running 2.0.20 on OSX and I cannot see Advanced Params or Standard Params. Any ideas?

I’m using ArduPilot 3.2. I had to downgrade from 3.2.1 because telemetry was not updating.

Hi Bill,

I have internet connectivity and I am unable to see the standard params or advanced params.

Is there a workaround?

10

Disconnect you network, and see if it works?

11

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the response. I turned off my wi-fi and restarted APM planner 2.0.20 and did not get the standard params or advanced params screen. I don’t have access to a Windows machine at the moment. I may get a chance to get my hands on one in a day or so.

FYI, I’m running OSX 10.11.3 El Capitan and running Ardupilot 3.2 on the FC.

Thanks again.

I’ll see if I can replicate. The last time I tested the this a week or so ago it was working. I just need to figure out what the issue is. Thx

13

I have exacly the same problem. FW arducpter 3.3 and I cannot see standard/advanced params.

File ~/apmplanner2/apm.pdef.xml has 302 redirect so is broken. I will check after work if download again help.

File is in http://autotest.ardupilot.org/Parameters/apm.pdef.xml location. So if anybody want check this may help:

rm ~/apmplanner2/apm.pdef.xml; curl ‘http://autotest.ardupilot.org/Parameters/apm.pdef.xml’ -o ~/apmplanner2/apm.pdef.xml

Thanks for your quick answer to my post Missing advanced parameter list in apmplanner 2.0.18 .
I’ve tried with the downloaded but, no changes, only when switching between installation at the first run of the new one, the list full parameterlist is accessible and the parameters are visible. Standard and Basic are empty.

OK, try this:
close apm planner, go to terminal:

rm ~/apmplanner2/apm.pdef.xml; curl ‘http://autotest.ardupilot.org/Parameters/apm.pdef.xml’ -o ~/apmplanner2/apm.pdef.xml; chmod 400 ./apmplanner2/apm.pdef.xml

I need add chmod 400 because apm planner always downloading wrong file:



302 Found

@billb always when i open apm planner Im getting this file, I completly remove apmplanner2 directory but not work. Only works when I download file from url and add chmod 400 - apm planner dont have write permission so file is good

16

Thanks. That explains the errors people have been seeing. It must be that the permission on the server have changed when it moved.

17

@billb
No, I added this permission to file to prevent file updates. Problem is that apm planner when start always write file with wrong body - see my above post (with 302 redirect).
So probably Your download lib in app not follow with redirect and put wrong body to file.

18

Ok, I understand the issue, but 2.0.20 should fix the issue and avoid the redirect

@billb
Unforutnately not, I removed current apm planner, downloaded new from Your links, removed apmplanner2 directory and after run new version apm planner file is broken.

Debug console output:

I grep apmplanner2 binary in Contents/MacOS/ and looks like wrong address is here:

is http://autotest.diydrones.com/ and should be http://autotest.ardupilot.org/

If You need any aditional data feel free to notify me.

Thanks for the detective work. I honestly thought I had changed that. I send out a fix

21

I have fixed it, it just didn’t make 2.0.20 https://github.com/ArduPilot/apm_planner/commit/5c81f622e212be05b248e0fba4bb8b45c64b609e

I’ll need to push 2.0.21 with that corrected.

22

OK, I have just pushed the update to master to test. If it works out I will push release

you can try the test version here http://firmware.ardupilot.org/Tools/APMPlanner/daily/2016-05-08/apm_planner_2.0.21_osx.dmg for OSX

23

Thanks for build, I will check later

24

I tried to use 2.0.21 on OSX. It crashes a few seconds after connecting to Arducopter 3.2 over USB. Let me know if you want me to paste the crashlog. I can’t upload the .txt file on this forum.

25

Just tried the new 2.0.21 and I get the same crash just after connecting via USB
This is to a PixRacer running 3.3 I think.
Was able to do a firmware update so it has 3.3.3 on it but on reconnect it crashed again.

There seems to be way to attach files in this forum otherwise I would upload the crash log.
