How to Debug the Dreamview Start Problem

Steps to Start Dreamview

If you encounter problems when starting Dreamview in the docker/scripts/dev sequence, first check if you are using the correct commands as shown below.

$ bash docker/scripts/dev_start.sh
$ bash docker/scripts/dev_into.sh
$ bash apollo.sh build
$ bash scripts/bootstrap.sh

Dreamview Fails to Start

If Dreamview fails to start, use the script below to check the Dreamview startup log and restart Dreamview.

# Start Dreamview in foreground to see any error message it prints out during startup
$ bash scripts/dreamview.sh start_fe

# check dreamview startup log
$ cat data/log/dreamview.out
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'CivetException'
  what():  null context when constructing CivetServer. Possible problem binding to port.

$ sudo apt-get install psmisc

# to check if dreamview is running from other terminal
$ sudo lsof -i :8888

# kill other running/pending dreamview
$ sudo fuser -k 8888/tcp

# restart dreamview again
$ bash scripts/dreamview.sh

Debug dreamview with gdb

If you get nothing in dreamview startup logs, you can try to debug dreamview with gdb, use the following commands:

$ gdb --args /apollo/bazel-bin/modules/dreamview/dreamview --flagfile=/apollo/modules/dreamview/conf/dreamview.conf
# or
$ source scripts/apollo_base.sh;
$ start_gdb dreamview

Once gdb is launched, press r and enter key to run, if dreamview crashes, then get the backtrace with bt.

CPU does not support FMA/FMA3 instructions

If you see an error Illegal instruction and something related with libpcl_sample_consensus.so.1.7 in gdb backtrace, then you probably need to rebuild pcl lib from source by yourself and replace the one in the docker.

This usually happens when you're trying to run Apollo/dreamview on a machine that the CPU does not support FMA/FMA3 instructions, it will fail because the prebuilt pcl lib shipped with docker image is compiled with FMA/FMA3 support.

There are 2 steps to resolve this issue:

  1. Identify if the issue is due to pcl lib through gdb: find the coredump file under /apollo/data/core/ with name core_dreamview.$PID. If you see logs like:
@in_dev_docker:/apollo$ gdb bazel-bin/modules/dreamview/dreamview  data/core/core_dreamview.378

build cmd: 
in_dev_docker:/apollo$ ./apollo.sh build_no_perception dbg
  1. Compile pcl and copy the pcl library files to /usr/local/lib:

Inside docker:

(to keep pcl in host, we save pcl under /apollo)
cd /apollo 
git clone https://github.com/PointCloudLibrary/pcl.git
git checkout -b 1.7.2 pcl-1.7.2

then hack CMakeLists.txt with :

~/playground/apollo/pcl$ git diff
diff --git a/CMakeLists.txt b/CMakeLists.txt
index f0a5600..42c182e 100644
--- a/CMakeLists.txt
+++ b/CMakeLists.txt
@@ -7,6 +7,15 @@ endif()
 
 set(CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES "Debug;Release" CACHE STRING "possible configurations" FORCE)
 
+if (CMAKE_VERSION VERSION_LESS "3.1")
+# if (CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID STREQUAL "GNU")
+    set (CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=gnu++11")
+    message("Build with c++11 support")
+# endif ()
+else ()
+  set (CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)

 if("${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE}" STREQUAL "")
   set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE RelWithDebInfo CACHE STRING "build type default to RelWithDebInfo, set to Release to improve performance" FORCE)

Then build with:

cd pcl
mkdir build
cd build
cmake  ..
make
(We don't know the parameters that Apollo used, so we keep it by default)

#backup pcl lib
mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/pcl.origin
mv /usr/local/lib/libpcl* /usr/local/lib/pcl.origin

#replace with our build
cp -a lib/* /usr/local/lib/

ldconfig

And finally restart Dreamview using

    bash scripts/bootstrap.sh stop
    bash scripts/bootstrap.sh start

CPU does not support AVX instructions

If CPU does not support AVX instructions, and you gdb the coredump file under /apollo/data/core/ with name core_dreamview.$PID, you may see logs like:

Program terminated with signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
#0  0x000000000112b70a in std::_Hashtable<std::string, std::string, std::allocator<std::string>, std::__detail::_Identity, std::equal_to<std::string>, google::protobuf::hash<std::string>, std::__detail::_Mod_range_hashing, std::__detail::_Default_ranged_hash, std::__detail::_Prime_rehash_policy, std::__detail::_Hashtable_traits<true, true, true> >::_Hashtable (this=0x3640288, __bucket_hint=10,

To resolve this issue, in apollo/apollo.sh, comment or delete:

--copt=-mavx2

Then try to build and start dreamview again.
