Preplexing local cost map problem

edit

Update: 3 images one with after set position issued. One with global map on, one with global map off, and the gazebo image of the simulation.

Update: setting the static map parameter to false in the global_costmap yaml file and the blue map line disappears. Not sure why since the static map is blank. Turning off the Global Map panel (topic: /move_base/global_costmap/costmap) in rivz also makes the blue line go away.

Update using a the light blue crescent map shape is coming from nav_msgs::OccupancyGrid topic /move_base/global_costmap/costmap. When I toggle the global panel off this line disappears. Not sure what this line represents. Robot still runs backwards in both rviz and gazebo if DWA is on.

When I run with the local cost map parms below my robot in rviz and gazebo run backwards and it plots no local (green) path. The aqua blue dots seem to be map related while the red dots are laser. Note they seem to have different orientations. But why?

global_costmap:
  global_frame:        /map
  robot_base_frame:    /base_link
  update_frequency:    30.0
  publish_frequency:   30.0
  static_map:          true   # note setting to false removes blue line
  width:               20.0
  height:              20.0
  origin_x:            -10.0
  origin_y:            -10.0


   local_costmap:
      global_frame:      /odom
      robot_base_frame:  /base_link
      update_frequency:  10.0
      publish_frequency: 10.0
      static_map:        false
      rolling_window:    true
      width:             16.0
      height:            16.0
      origin_x:          0.0
      origin_y:          0.0

when I run with

  static_map:        true
  rolling_window:    false

my robot runs forward and does display a current local path. These are the only changes I make to get this results. Static map can be set to false here and as long as DWA is false also it will move forward.
