Hi all,

I receive the following error:

[WARN] [WallTime: 1401915353.147587] Could not process inbound connection: Client [/rostopic_4474_1401915352624] wants topic [/feedback_states] to have datatype/md5sum [control_msgs/FollowJointTrajectoryFeedback/10817c60c2486ef6b33e97dcd87f4474], but our version has [control_msgs/FollowJointTrajectoryFeedback/b11d532a92ee589417fdd76559eb1d9e] Dropping connection.{'message_definition': '# ====== DO NOT MODIFY!

I have a machine publishing on the feedback_states topic using the code shown below. The error is raised when, on another machine, i run rostopic echo "feedback_states". The publisher is Groovy whist the receiver is Hydro.

Code to publish on feedback_states:

b_msg = FollowJointTrajectoryFeedback()
time = rospy.Time.now()
fb_msg.header.stamp = time
fb_msg.joint_names = 'j_wrist1_arm1'
fb_msg.actual.positions = val
pub_fb_state.publish(fb_msg)

My initial thinking is that perhaps there is an issue with the different distributions for the control_msgs. If this is the case or not i have no idea how to resolve this. Should i update the Groovy version to Hydro?

Any help is appreciated it.

Regards.

The publisher is Groovy whist the receiver is Hydro.

While I don't really see any changes to the control_msgs package between groovy and hydro (see control_msgs/compare/groovy-devel...hydro-devel), it could well be that the MD5 of the individual messages has changed, due to changes to the code generation. That would explain the error you are seeing.

Try again with a Groovy - Groovy, or Hydro - Hydro combination and see if that resolves your error (I'm betting it will).

Correct, the issue was that there were two different versions being used. I ended up making both Hydro and the messages worked. Thanks for your help.
