gazebo simulation tutorial

Is anyone tried this tutorial before? http://gazebosim.org/tutorials/?tut=ros_urdf

I follow the steps: cd ~/catkinws/src/ git clone https://github.com/ros-simulation/gazeborosdemos.git cd .. catkinmake build successful.

However, when i try to run roslaunch rrbotdescription rrbotrviz.launch, it gives me this error. [rviz-4] process has died [pid 8639, exit code -11, cmd /opt/ros/indigo/lib/rviz/rviz -d /home/sam/task/src/gazeborosdemos/rrbotdescription/launch/rrbot.rviz _name:=rviz __log:=/home/sam/.ros/log/1164600a-1ffb-11e5-ac93-485ab67bb3cb/rviz-4.log]. log file: /home/sam/.ros/log/1164600a-1ffb-11e5-ac93-485ab67bb3cb/rviz-4*.log

Can anyone help me?

It works for me, ROS Indigo, Gazebo 4.1.2, Ubuntu 214.04 64b. Although RViz is crashing, is gazebo still running? Try to open a new rviz in separate terminal and configure it manually. Which ROS/Gazebo/Ubuntu versions are you using?

RViz has its own troubleshooting guidance. I suggest you to go through them, and if any idea there doesn't help, provide more info following issue report guidance in the same page.
