Revision history [back]

I had a similar error here. After checking the tutorial details lots of times it was still happening (on Hydro, Ubunto14.04). I saw the output of catkin_make like this, -- ~~ traversing 1 packages in topological order: -- ~~ - maps_ibex -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -- +++ processing catkin package: 'maps_ibex' -- ==> add_subdirectory(maps_ibex) -- Using these message generators: gencpp;genlisp;genpy -- maps_ibex: 0 messages, 2 services -- Configuring done -- Generating done -- Build files have been written to: /home/charles/Dropbox/catkin_base/src

which claims the services are seen and generating has been done. but there was nothing in catkin_ws/devel/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/maps_ibex/srv/

After some experimentation -- I found the python files are created there if I do cd src make

No idea why this occurs though, looks like catkin_make is creating the CMake and Makefiles but then not actually running make?
