Hi community,

currently gpsd_client did not work any more ;-

MockBot$ rosrun gpsd_client gpsd_client _port:=2947

netlib_connectsock() returns socket on fd 9
[ INFO] [1321344855.149877424]: GPSd opened
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'boost::exception_detail::clone_impl<boost::exception_detail::error_info_injector<boost::math::rounding_error> >'
  what():  Error in function boost::math::round<d>(d): Value nan can not be represented in the target integer type.
Abgebrochen

gpsd is running:

MockBot$ sudo lsof -i :2947
COMMAND  PID   USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
gpsd    3466 nobody    4u  IPv4  93755      0t0  TCP localhost.localdomain:gpsd (LISTEN)
gpsd    3466 nobody    5u  IPv6  93756      0t0  TCP ros:gpsd (LISTEN)

I've updated ros-electric with apt-get to the last version...

Any idea ?

Cheers

Christian

I got the same error when using an UBOX gps.. the problem was that the gps doesn't publish the time as requested by the gpsd_client.

To solve it you have to pass a parameter to disable the time from gps

here is the command line i use to start gpsd_client

$ rosrun gpsd_client gpsd_client _host:=localhost _port:=2947 _use_gps_time:=false

and it should work

Regards

Mario

process[gpsd_client-7]: started with pid [1697]

:-)

New release from git and your suggestion _use_gps_time:=false works out of the box !!!

GREAT! Thanks and special greetings from Hamburg Cheers Christian

Has anyone been able to fix this issue? I get the exact same problem running ros-electric on Ubuntu 11.10.

I am having the same problem, except this fix does not work for me. I am still getting


netlib_connectsock() returns socket on fd 9 terminate called after throwing an instance of 'boost::exception_detail::clone_impl<boost::exception_detail::error_info_injector<boost::math::rounding_error> >' what(): Error in function boost::math::round<d>(d): Value nan can not be represented in the target integer type.

Aborted

when I use

rosrun gps_fixed gps_fixed _host:=localhost _use_gps_time:=false

to run.

does anybody have any other ideas?

Hi Mario,

thanks for your advice, but it didn't work for me ;-( Did gpsd_client support this value ? I cannot find anything at the source code...

Searching.... :-) Cheers Christian
