Failed to connect (Error: Port is not open)

Re: Stuck at "Failed to connect (Error: Port is not open)" between Atom and GPy/Pysense on Fedora computer

I have the same problem as the referenced thread.
Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
Atom v1.38.2
pymakr v1.4.14

I also can get the above combination of Atom and pymakr versions to work on a Windows machine, but I need to get it working in Linux.

Any help would be appreciated.

@Nebr You could try to add yourself to the dialout group:

sudo adduser <your name> dialout

And then logout/login, or to be safe, reboot.

@Nebr That is a permission issues on your port. To verify you can try sudo chmod 777 /dev/ttyACM0 and then try to connect

@Nebr Update:

Every thing seems to be working at this point.

Under the pymakr Settings>Global settings if you page down to the bottom there is a "Cannot connect to Pycom device on Linux" section (shame on me for not finding this sooner). Running the command sudo usermod -a -G dialout $USER as directed seems to have solved the issue.
