@chrisl8,

SBC: Rpi 4B/4GB
OS: Ubuntu focal server/gnome desktop
ROS: Noetic

Steps to Reproduce Issue:
My present Arlobot configuration is a two stack so I changed "arlobotModel": "default" to "arlo_2stack" and received a 'start-robot.sh' message that "common_arlo_2stack.urdf.xacro" does not exist.

Apparently ROS is looking for a "common_default.urdf.xacro" file that obviously does not exist since it is presently "arlo_2stack.urdf.xacro". Obviously I cannot change "default" to "arlo_2stack.urdf.xarco" and I suspect I need to create a new 'common_thomas.urdf.xacro with:

<!-- ArloBot -->
<xacro:include filename="$(find arlobot_ros)/urdf/arlo_2stack.urdf.xacro"/>?

Workaround:
Change xacro:include filename="$(find arlobot_ros)/urdf/arlo.urdf.xacro"/> to xacro:include filename="$(find arlobot_ros)/urdf/arlo_2stack.urdf.xacro"/>

@chrisl8,

I created a new urdf file called "common_thomas.urdf.xacro" in which I changed "arlo.urdf.xacro" to "arlo_2stack.urdf.xacro" and then in 'personalDataForBehavior' I changed "arlobotModel": "default" to "arlobotModel": "thomas".

After rebooting, the Arlobot Web Controller appeared on the Ubuntu MATE desktop indicating that the "common_thomas.urdf.xacro" functioned as expected.

Therefore I am closing this issue.
