Try rosparam list on the command line and see if robot_description is listed anywhere. Also look in your launch files for any references to robot_description (or xacro.py).

It's Ok now. Instead running rosrun rviz rviz I used roslaunch turtlebot3_bringup turtlebot3_model.launch and it starts rviz with all things i needed. I mention that i use a turtlebot3 robot(burger model)
