yocto bitbake

I am trying to learn yocto by following the video tutorials on their main website. I installed the poky-rocko-18.0.0 and after setting up the build environment I tried to build the linux image using the following command:

bitbake core-image-minimal

However, I am getting the following error:

bitbake error

I am unsure how to start the bitbake server and so far have not found any good references for the same.

We also faced same issue with our bitbake server. It will worked after remove bitbacke.lock file. Use below command for solution.

rm -rf bitbake.lock
