Hi 

I sometimes ( not always ) get some strange errors in the Arduino service.

I think it is some type of timing issue.

Using this little script sometimes reproduce the error. 

arduino = Runtime.start("arduino","Arduino")
arduino.connect("COM8")
 
Not a very complicated script.  I sent a No-worky from Eclipse. Not 100% sure if that work.
I tried adding a sleep(5) before the connect and then it works.
 
A small part of the logfile when this occurs:

----------------------------------
 
I have also seen this seen a strange behaviour where the Arduino service creates two tabs, and one of them say "Arduino does not have a user interface". The other tab is empty without any text. So neither show the normal Arduino GUI. It only happens sometimes, so it's probably also some timing issue.
 
 
 
This is the logfile from when the second type of error occurs:

Hmmm ... looking through your noWorkys - the Errors are comments on my source ..

I tried 5 times with your test but could not generate the errors.

 
16:11:05.472 [main] ERROR c.m.f.r.ServiceData [ServiceData.java:163] Class name org.myrobotlab.service.Bno055 not equal to the ServiceType's name org.myrobotlab.service.Mpu6050
* remove all serviceData.json you can find - they can be in a variety of different places
 
 ERROR c.m.f.Service [Arduino.java:1364] error serial
 * we are out of sync on this - as Arduino.java line 1364 is a comment on my source .. :(
 
I checked in some changes in Arduino - they enable heartbeat right after connection - there was some problems with the method existing in a different method - now they are appropriately in the callbacks.
 
I don't think it will change your situation - but ... it might - check out and re-create the problem then at least our source will be in sync.
 
Hold Tight !

I don't know if it is related to your problem, but i can reproduce this :

NOK ( arduino won't connect )
i01 = Runtime.createAndStart("i01", "InMoov")
i01.startRightHand("COM3")

OK
right = Runtime.createAndStart("i01.right", "Arduino")
i01 = Runtime.createAndStart("i01", "InMoov")
right.connect("COM3")
