VMRC Example Tutorial not working #43
Comments
Original comment by Brian Bingham (Bitbucket: brian_bingham).
This tutorial is really a part of PR https://osrf-migration.github.io/vrx-gh-pages/#!/osrf/vmrc/pull-requests/44 Could you try the tutorial using that branch? |
Original comment by Michael McCarrin (Bitbucket: m1chaelm). The first command now runs without error (when I switch to the new branch), but the localization example is still failing. The substance of the error message seems to be the same: |
Original comment by Brian Bingham (Bitbucket: brian_bingham). Could you post the entire output of the command |
Original comment by Michael McCarrin (Bitbucket: m1chaelm). Yes. The entire output is posted above. Running again gives the same result, except pids, etc. vary as expected. |
Original comment by Michael McCarrin (Bitbucket: m1chaelm). I do. |
Original comment by Brian Bingham (Bitbucket: brian_bingham). @M1chaelM Could you run this
and the paste the output as a code block so that it is verbatim? The formatting above is making it difficult to parse. When I run the example, I get...

Original comment by Michael McCarrin (Bitbucket: m1chaelm). I added backticks to the output so it's easier to read. I can also repost the output if you prefer. Just let me know what's easiest. |
Original comment by Michael McCarrin (Bitbucket: m1chaelm). OK, I ran:
and got the same errors as above.
and got:

Original comment by Michael McCarrin (Bitbucket: m1chaelm). OK, I did that too. Still no robot_description parameter though. |
Original comment by Brian Bingham (Bitbucket: brian_bingham). Hmmm - are you running on a laptop? Maybe you could bring it buy tomorrow and I could take a look? |
Original comment by Michael McCarrin (Bitbucket: m1chaelm). Sure, no problem. |
Original comment by Michael McCarrin (Bitbucket: m1chaelm). The problem was that I didn't understand the relationship between the commands described in this tutorial. In particular, that Gazebo produces the simulated input needed by the robot_localization package, so the first command must continue to run for the second to work, and likewise both commands must be running for the third to work (since rviz is using the robot localization data). I've edited the instructions to suggest opening a new terminal so my fellow noobs are not tripped up by this. |

Tutorial is now running without errors. |
Original report (archived issue) by Michael McCarrin (Bitbucket: m1chaelm).
This tutorial contains three commands, for running a simulation, robot localization, and visualization. All 3 commands are currently failing on my machine (configured using the host installation from tutorial 1). Is there additional preparation that needs to be completed before running this?
The output of the commands is:
[vmrc.launch] is neither a launch file in package [robotx_gazebo] nor is [robotx_gazebo] a launch file name
The traceback for the exception was written to the log file
[rviz_vmrc.launch] is neither a launch file in package [wamv_gazebo] nor is [wamv_gazebo] a launch file name
The traceback for the exception was written to the log file
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
