Revision history [back]

Here are ROS related lines in my .bashrc:

source /opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash
source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

export ROS_MASTER_URI=http://localhost:11311//
export ROS_HOSTNAME=localhostsource /opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash

If that is really a copy-paste of your .bashrc then it would seem something went wrong while adding those lines (there was most likely a new-line missing after the export ROS_HOSTNAME line).

If you don't have a particular reason to set ROS_MASTER_URI and ROS_HOSTNAME to those values (localhost is already the default), then I would recommend to remove the export .. lines from your .bashrc, save it, open a new terminal and try starting your launch file again.

So your .bashrc should look like this (at the end, after all the normal stuff that is already there):

source /opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash
source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash
