9. Please describe the issue in detail.

   • on running the launch command according the docs the following things should happen

This launch file will launch Nav2 with the AMCL localizer in the turtlebot3_world world. It will also launch the robot state publisher to provide transforms, a Gazebo instance with the Turtlebot3 URDF, and RVIZ.

• but, for me the RVIZ started and the screen showed missing /map for fixed frame ( attaching a screenshot below)

[lonebots]

I have followed the suggested method listed in an earlier issue #2757 [Can't open gazebo11 when run tb3_simulation_launch.py](ros-navigation/navigation2#2757). But, unfortunately all those methods didn't worked for me. Even after waiting for more than 15 minutes the same error message prevails

[raziurtotha]

Hi @lonebots , have you found any solution to this issue?

[sosoeeee]

I encounter the same issue!
I solve it by running source /usr/share/gazebo/setup.bash before running the launch file

[fatemehprhm]

Hi, I did ran the navigation using ros2 launch nav2_bringup tb3_simulation_launch.py slam:=True by setting the slam param to true. This solved the problem for me.

[herbertskyper]

Hi,you can check if your terminal has a conda environment.I solved this problem by exiting the conda environment

[yjrqz777]

I encounter the same issue! I solve it by running source /usr/share/gazebo/setup.bash before running the launch file

I solve it with you method,and thank!
