Problem running openni_launch.launch --- Failed to load nodelet [/camera/driver] of type [openni_camera/driver]: Could not find library corresponding to plugin openni_camera/driver. [closed]
Hi,
I tried to follow the Quick Start Guide of openni_launch. As I am using Ubuntu 13.10, I have to install ROS (hydro) from source, not by apt-get, and it is the same way for other packages.
So, I installed openni_launch and openni_camera by cloning from github into my workspace, catkin_make it, and source the bash file. Then I ran
roslaunch openni_launch openni_launch.launch
And the following red texts appeared:
[ERROR] [1393915524.708745003]: Failed to load nodelet [/camera/driver] of type [openni_camera/driver]: Could not find library corresponding to plugin openni_camera/driver. Make sure the plugin description XML file has the correct name of the library and that the library actually exists.\\[FATAL] [1393915524.710317875]: Service call failed!

(Full output here)
When trying to use Rviz to visualize, nothing appeared. It said "No image received." image_view also showed nothing,
Anyone has had this kind of problem? Is it related to the fact that I installed ROS from source, and I created another workspace separated from the one that I used to install it?
My system: Ubuntu 13.10 64-bit, ros-hydro installed from source, Kinect for Xbox (but I have tried with Kinect for Windows too)
Thank you,

Well, I forgot to add the source command in my .bashrc. After sourcing the setup.bash file the first error becomes [ERROR] [1394169434.884048329]: Failed to load nodelet [/camera/driver] of type [openni_camera/driver]: Failed to load library /home/veerachart/Research/catkin_ws/devel/lib//libopenni_nodelet.so. Make sure that you are calling the PLUGINLIB_EXPORT_CLASS macro in the library code, and that names are consistent between this macro and your XML. Error string: Could not load library (Poco exception = /home/veerachart/Research/catkin_ws/devel/lib//libopenni_nodelet.so: undefined symbol: _ZTIN7log4cxx7helpers13ObjectPtrBaseE)
when you type "lsusb" you can see your kinect? You are using an USB3.0 Port? Only the camera/driver process died or a few more? Maybe you can try "killall -s 9 XnSensorServer" and then start the driver again. If it doesnt work, please try another USB port....
Hi patrickl. "lsusb" show that Kinect is connected to the computer. I'm using USB3.0 port, but I have tried switching to USB2.0 from BIOS, and the same thing happened. Only camera/driver died; the rest started, and "rostopic list" still shows a lot of camera topics. I'll try the rest of you suggestion on Monday, but anyway I don't have a USB2.0 on my computer.
Maybe a usb2.0/esata combo? it would be the easiest way. If not, you can maybe find a solution here: http://answers.ros.org/question/53089/ubuntu-1210-groovy-openni-usb30-working/ or http://answers.ros.org/question/9179/kinect-and-usb-30/
I tried the "killall" command, and it said: "XnSensorServer: no process found". Changing port also didn't help. I don't understand about usb2.0/esata that you mentioned. The other 2 links seem unrelevant to my problem. One more thing, I had been using the same Kinect on this notebook on USB3.0 before installing ROS, with libfreenect library.
One thing that I notice is that in the error, there are 2 "/" in the address "/home/veerachart/Research/catkin_ws/devel/lib//libopenni_nodelet.so". Would that cause the problem. Anyway I haven't changed anything from the original package, even tried removing the library and download it & make again.
a installation of the ros-groovy-openni-launch normally includes all needed libs and drivers.... your laptop hast maybe something like this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ESATAp
eSATA is not written near my USB port, only SS for USB3.0 symbol.
