Hey there,

I also have a quite strange behavior: Neigher RVIZ nor gazebo7 showed my stl files I could not see anything.

Now the problem for RVIZ was that I started it in a terminal which was not sourced before. For this reason I also got this message:

[ WARN] [1526747950.872458465, 38.200000000]: OGRE EXCEPTION(6:FileNotFoundException): Cannot locate resource package://kuka_manipulator_description/meshes/kr5_arc/collision/link_6.stl in resource group Autodetect or any other group. in ResourceGroupManager::openResource at /build/ogre-1.9-mqY1wq/ogre-1.9-1.9.0+dfsg1/OgreMain/src/OgreResourceGroupManager.cpp (line 756)
[ERROR] [1526747950.872529918, 38.200000000]: Could not load model

After sourcing RVIZ the model showed up in RVIZ but I still cannot see my model in gazebo.... (am not sure why....)

If nothing works to see gazebo model

Just try to click view->Collissions and may also enable wireframe

Solved it -> see gazebo model

If you cannot see your .dae in your gazebo simulation you can at least may attach a material to it:

This can be done via:

<gazebo reference="link_1">
   <material>Gazebo/Green</material>
</gazebo>

a full material list is here:
