Why the server keeps waiting for clients?

[Weibing Li]

Dear Sir or Madam,

I just found your amazing RoboGen project. I have followed the instructions on the website, however, as shown in the following figure, the server just keeps waiting for clients. Could someone help me with this problem? Thanks very much.

Hello M. Weibing. I'm sorry for not responding earlier.

The server is only the simulator part of the software, once it is launched, you need to start the evolution engine itself witht the command

./robogen-evolver <seed, INTEGER> <output directory, STRING> <evolution configuration file, STRING>

You can find more information at the bottom of this page in the RoboGen documentation:

I hope this helps,

Alice
