Revision history [back]

I'm going to guess the bag file was made in an older version of ROS. If it wasn't melodic then the message definitions could have changed, in which case see this link for what to do http://wiki.ros.org/rosbag/migration (you can probably get away with rosbag check and rosbag fix)
