Save a map with Lidar

I follow this tutorial for save a map : http://wiki.ros.org/slam_gmapping/Tut... I create my own bag, and i see on rviz the Lidar data. But when I launch the command " rosrun gmapping slam_gmapping scan:=base_scan " there are nothing on my terminal. is normal? After that, I wrote "rosbag play --clock nameofmybag.bag" --->>> it's done, and " rosrun map_server map_saver". On my terminal, there are writing "waiting for de map" but nothing after that. What's the problem?

(When i launch the last command, in my another terminal " rosrun gmapping .." they are write : TF_OLD_DATA ignoring data from the past for frame base_footprint at time .... )

Thanks for your Help

TF_OLD_DATA probably means that you have not set sim time to true. When playing back bagfiles, you have to use sim time so that the clock published by rosbag will be used by nodes that need to interact with time:

rosparam set use_sim_time true

This should be run after starting your roscore, but BEFORE starting gmapping or rosbag

Yes I had run "rosparam set use_sim_time true " after roscore and before gmapping and rosbag. I follow exactly the tutorial. It's the same problem.
