    @tom Now I have upgrade SDK to 1.1.2, and did everything again through this link:
    https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-mapper/-/tree/master?ref_type=heads

    The thing is that the voxl-mapper is Enabled but not running and when I am trying the voxl-mapper command, I get the following error:
    4241c0a9-0e68-4bf8-b14c-fff1e486d89f-image.png
    I would appreciate it if you could give me some hint on this.
    Thank you so much.

    @Pooyan there was an internet connection issue and after that I used "opkg update && opkg upgrade", and then "opkg install voxl-portal voxl-mapper " for installing mapper again and now this problem is solved.

      @Pooyan Okay you can't mix and match packages like that. voxl-camera-server from dev can't be used with SDK 0.9.5.

      You need to use SDK 1.1.2 and use the packages as they come, not pull in others, it won't work

      @tom Hello again,

      The SDK was updated to 1.2.0 and it was because of putting the configure-opkg on dev as it was said in the GitLab voxl-mapper link. I went through every steps in the following link again. Do you have any idea about what I can do?

      as you can see, when I run the "voxl-mapper", I get the following errors and it keeps repeating.

      Thank you so much for your help.

        @tom Again I changed the version to 1.1.2 and got the same issue about loading shared libraries: libvoxblox.so. So I want to explain more what I do in case you could help me better.
        I have included the screenshot as well.
        Screenshot from 2024-02-07 18-23-182.jpg
        When I push the built mapper to voxl I get the following error as well. I wanted to show that to you as well:
        Screenshot from 2024-02-07 18-23-18.jpg
        The codes I use to do that are as follow:
        git clone https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/voxl-sdk/services/voxl-mapper.git
        ./install_build_deps.sh APQ8096 dev
        ./build.sh apq8096
        ./make_package.sh ipk
        ./deploy_to_voxl.sh

        I would appreciate it if you could give me any hints on this.

            @tom I have just flashed it again and before anything else I did opkg install voxl-mapper and I got this:

            Screenshot from 2024-02-09 10-29-17.png

            I did it when the seeker is connected to the internet and the adb cable is connected, and I got this:

            726564fb-3d01-49b2-85ff-dc879297114a.jpg

            Still I didn't even install the FC2 through QGC or doing anything else.

                  @Pooyan Okay you'll just have to install the dependencies in the same way. I just did this on my voxl1:

                  cd /data/voxl-suite-offline-packages/
                  opkg install voxl-ceres-solver_2\:1.14.0-10.ipk 
                  opkg install voxl-nlopt_2.5.0-4.ipk 
                  opkg install voxl-voxblox_1.1.5.ipk 
                  opkg install voxl-mapper_0.2.0.ipk

                    @tom Thank you so much. Now it seems that I have it and when I run it I get the following errors:
                    804bff15-53ea-4cf2-9cc0-f0c32d6502d7.jpg

                    Do I need to upload the FC2? as I didnt do it yet.

                      @Pooyan Cool you shouldn't have to change anything on the flight core for this to work, I'll see if I can get someone else from my team to take a look.

                          @tom So, if I just restart and then do "systemctl enable voxl-mapper", it will work. But if I run it on CMD with voxl-mapper, it will still show me the same error. If you have any comments I would appreciate it, otherwise it works in that way.

                          Thank you so much.
