Hi gandalf, I'm hoping to have a good weekend and get it ready for the end but might be mid next week.
Hi dlborum, thanks for posting, sorry it didn't go so well. This is yet another issue I've never come across, it's almost seems like the service file isn't setup properly. Can you try running sudo ./startup to see if it starts or run sudo ./robotank to see if that works. If you see any errors let me know. Maybe before running those commands stop the robotank service file using sudo systemctl stop robotank.service
The main install command you have is correct but it will only work on Buster variant of Pi OS, maybe verify that's what you installed. You shouldn't have to manually edit the /boot/config.txt file, when you change a sensor port to a DS18B20 via the configure ports screen it should update that file and prompt you for a reboot.
