Invoking "make -j4 -l4" failed

Hi all
I was following the manual to install ros on Ubuntu 16.04
http://emanual.robotis.com/docs/en/platform/turtlebot3/pc_setup/#pc-setup
When I reach this command : cd ~/catkin_ws && catkin_make
I get this error

Build space: /home/basma/catkin_ws/build
Devel space: /home/basma/catkin_ws/devel
Install space: /home/basma/catkin_ws/install

Running command: “make cmake_check_build_system” in “/home/basma/catkin_ws/build”

Running command: “make -j4 -l4” in “/home/basma/catkin_ws/build”

Can anybody help me???

Thanks for your question. However we ask that you please ask questions on http://answers.ros.org following our support guidelines: Support - ROS Wiki

In short, this is not a turtlebot3 issue. You have a problem with my_first_pkg’s ‘hello.cpp’ file. Removing the ‘my_first_pkg’ package in the ‘catkin_ws/src/’ directory will solve this problem. :slight_smile:

I did and my problem is solved
Thanks a lot
