move_base crashing when trying to publish costmap from static map [closed]

Hi there,

I am using the move_base node for navigation of our robot. The global costmap uses a static map as source. However when I want the costmap to be published (setting publish_frequency parameter > 0) the move_base node crashes. This is what is on the console:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
  what():  std::bad_alloc
[move_base-13] process has died [pid 14954, exit code -6].

Now the question is simple: Is it somehow possible to publish the costmap that is created from a static map? If yes, how could I do it?

(I don't really need the costmap published, but I turned publishing on because I wanted to see it in rviz and it took me quite a time to figure out what is making move_base crash)

How big is the costmap you are trying to create? Size of static map (in meters)? Resolution of the costmap? Memory available on your computer? 32-bit or 64-bit OS?

The map is 4000x4000 at a resolution of 0.05, this is what gmapping does per default. So the map has a length of 200 meters. My computer has 4GB memory, and 32bit Ubuntu.

Try also setting publish_voxel_map to true.

I already have set this parameter. It doesn't change anything
