Issue Details

My Linux RT controller freezes when I am using an application with enabled Embedded UI.

Solution

This is a known issue that appeared starting from 5.15 and later NILRT kernels which will be fixed in the 2024Q4 release. For now, there are two workarounds:
  1. Downgrade the software and a driver version to 2020.
  2. Modify the "rtgroups" file on the target:
  • Download the fixed 'rtgroups' file that is attached at the bottom of this page
  • Copy on target to '/etc/rtgroups' replacing the installed file.
  • Reboot for setting to take effect.
If the chassis crashes after these modifications, please contact NI Technical Support for further assistance.
