Revision history [back]

I spent several hours trying to solve that issue and finally I have found the solution (I know the topic is a little outdated, but it might be helpful for others). Which is pathetically easy :)

I am using ph4m version of SensorKinect, cause avin2 failed during building and ROS-Kinetic.

Shorter version of error I used to receive by executing roslaunch openni_launch openni.launch

...

....

To fix that I went to openni.launch file and changed this: <arg name="device_id" default="#1" /> into that: <arg name="device_id" default="B00367611818052B" />, which is ID read from error message.
