Hello @oleg.a.kuvaev , As indicated in the other post, I solve this by removing the current compilation files and rebuilding the workspace: ```auto cd ~/ros2_ws rm -rf build install log colcon build ``` Also, I saw that you had some compilation files inside `~/ros2_ws/src` : ![Captura de pantalla 2023-01-10 a las 9.56.53](https://get-help.robotigniteacademy.com/uploads/default/original/2X/7/7d4d3d6e352707ee26cb212c71e7296b857549dc.png) **You MUST only compile in the root of the workspace** `/home/user/ros2_ws` and nowhere else. So all the compilation folders/files that are outside the root of the workspace must be removed. ---

This did not solve the problem. Packages are compiled before being sent to GradeBot. Executed by a robot. GradeBot gives a compilation error (there are 2 attempts left, this is already bothering me a little). What’s wrong? ---

Hi @oleg.a.kuvaev , `setuptools` installed in your environment is probably a wrong version. Try the following command on your terminal: ```auto pip install setuptools==58.2.0 ``` Source: [SetuptoolsDeprecationWarning: setup.py install is deprecated. Use build and pip and other standards-based tools. - ROS Answers: Open Source Q&A Forum](https://answers.ros.org/question/396439/setuptoolsdeprecationwarning-setuppy-install-is-deprecated-use-build-and-pip-and-other-standards-based-tools/?answer=400052#post-id-400052) Please let us know if the problem gets fixed!

Hi @oleg.a.kuvaev , Amazing!!! Glad that it worked for you! I hope now you can submit your work to gradebot. Hopefully this time you won’t face any issues! Regards, Girish ---

Hi @oleg.a.kuvaev , Don’t panic!!! If you use up all your attempts, it can be reset by TheConstruct team. Currently, there seems to be a problem with gradebot for this specific exercise: Refer: [ROS2 Basics in 5 Days Humble (C++) - 4.7 Services Quiz - #5 by albertoezquerro](https://get-help.robotigniteacademy.com/t/ros2-basics-in-5-days-humble-c-4-7-services-quiz/21408/5) Keep following that post to stay informed when the problem gets fixed.

Greate 😃 My solution for this mistake: 1. **cd ~/ros2\_ws** and **rm -rf build install log** 2. **colcon build** 3. Verify in simulations 4. Again **cd ~/ros2\_ws** and **rm -rf build install log** 5. Sent to GradeBot **WITHOUT colcon build** Profit 🙂 ![profit](https://get-help.robotigniteacademy.com/uploads/default/original/2X/3/30c935ab624f0cf45e0abc3e9a0999231f7bdfb9.png) ---

Hi @oleg.a.kuvaev , Awesome! You have found the solution yourself! Also, thanks for sharing it! > [@oleg.a.kuvaev](#): > > Sent to GradeBot **WITHOUT colcon build** I was about to suggest you this step. But I was slightly unsure if that would work. Anyways glad you solved it! Regards, Girish ---
