For frame [hokuyo_link]: Frame [hokuyo_link] does not exist

Hi,

I account a problem when using virtual laser. I could see the laser points in rviz when the link name of "hokuyolink" doesn't change to "laserlink" in the following urdf code. Using the following code (change to "laserlink"), I could see nothing laser points but the error which shows "For frame [hokuyolink]: Frame [hokuyolink] does not exist". There is no hokuyolink but it has a laserlink instead. I just could not understand why rviz needs hokuyolink even if it has been replaced with "laserlink" in urdf file. How to make it work with the link of "laserlink"? Thanks!

Hi,

I am facing the same problem on my Summit_XL....in RVIZ...for both the front and the rear Lidar.
