General

Q: I am having trouble running the samples, what can I do to debug them?

A: The following steps are generally useful for debugging the samples:

• Ensure the prerequisites for the ePO DXL service have been met.

• Switch from ERROR to DEBUG logging in the samples as shown below:

  # Configure local logger
  logging.getLogger().setLevel(logging.ERROR)

  Change to:

  # Configure local logger
  logging.getLogger().setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

Q: I receive a timeout, "dxlclient.exceptions.WaitTimeoutException: Timeout waiting for response to message", when attempting to invoke an ePO command via DXL

A: This typically occurs due to the Python client not having permission to send messages to the topic associated with the ePO server.

The following page provides information about authorizing clients to access the ePO DXL service:
