Legato Application shutting down because of le_gnss_start failing

Hello,

we are encountering issues while doing extensive use of Legato under our product.
We are doing periodical wake-ups for GNSS fixes, and we have a failure where the device does not position anymore.
We could get the log, it appears that le_gnss_start() is faulting, and this seems related to pa_gnss_Start() platform adaptation function.

We are running on WP7702, using legato 11.19.0

Note that in many cases everything works fine, the device has been doing several wake-ups/positioning/Sleep before failing. We are using ULPM.

I attach the full log below
logread_sn0012_tracker_stopped.txt (414.0 KB)

Can anyone explain what can cause this ?

Can you reproduce the issue with AT! gpsfix command?

This can isolate if legato api has problem

I cannot test this on the failing device. I will if I am able to reproduce the issue.
I see different issue on another device which is similar but not the same, I will make a separate post.

Can’t you extract any information from the log provided ?

you can also try the following and see if it can recover the GNSS session

gnss <enable/disable>
gnss <start/stop>

have you resolved the issue am also facing the same issue … if any solution can any one share the code
also need how to set nmea format and read the value

You can use “gnss set nmeaSentences”
