Hi

Just ran apt-get update on a turtlebot install on an odroid C1 (ARM board) running 14.04 and indigo.

robot_state_publihser version is 1.10.4

After the update running minimal.launch I get the rising notes from the turtlebot but output now contains error

odroid@odroid:~$ roslaunch turtlebot_bringup minimal.launch

further info - updated raspberry pi, once updated, same error. On VM machine (not ARM) updated still works

turtlebot packages updated on pi (can't list all in comment) turtlebot, turtlebot-bringup, turtlebot-capabilities, turtlebot-description, turtlebot-teleop

nickw gravatar image nickw  ( 2015-05-22 04:00:09 -0500 )edit

turtlebot-bringup, turtlebot-capabilities, turtlebot-description, turtlebot-teleop are all version 2.3.11

I can confirm it has stopped working on ODROID XU3 as well, I guess it only affects ARM processors. Is there a way to revert to the working version of robot_state_publisher? Need my robot to work real fast

Can you get a gdb backtrace? tutorial for launching with gdb

tfoote gravatar image tfoote  ( 2015-05-25 03:35:56 -0500 )edit

The gdb backtrace resulted in: Using host libthread_db library "/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libthread_db.so.1".

Program received signal SIGBUS, Bus error. 0xb661ac74 in ?? () from /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libpcre.so.3

PS. I'm using robot_state_publisher in my own robot, not turtlebot

I think I have tracked it down - building robot_model from most current source in a workspace stops robot_state_publisher from crashing. Have tried it on a xu3 and a raspberry pi2 and it has worked on both.

Interesting, thanks for tracking that down. I'll have to take a look at why that makes a difference.

tfoote gravatar image tfoote  ( 2015-05-30 13:52:10 -0500 )edit

weird, I'm still unable to make it work, it always die with error code -7

Cubex gravatar image Cubex  ( 2015-06-01 00:25:08 -0500 )edit

I installed dependencies for the workspace as well (rosdep install --from-paths src -i -y), so that may pull in something relevant, and assume you have sourced the setup file after building the workspace? I am just using standard turtlebot install, but haven't tested with actual robot yet

nickw gravatar image nickw  ( 2015-06-01 01:40:21 -0500 )edit

Sorry, quite a newbie here, what do you mean by building robot_model, i assume it's for turtlebot? What if I'm using my own robot model for rviz?

robot_model build a robot model from the files you have, it is not the robot model of the robot.

nickw gravatar image nickw  ( 2015-06-01 03:10:47 -0500 )edit

Ok, I've tried rebuilding all of them. Now, the error code has changed from -7 to 127 and still died upon launch

EDIT: Nope, still error -7, and when rosrun robot_state_publisher just to check, it returns Bus error.

Cubex gravatar image Cubex  ( 2015-06-02 21:44:11 -0500 )edit

I don't know if it's related, but running rviz returns bus error while most people complained about seg fault

The accepted answer (build robot_state_publisher from source) did NOT work for me on Odroid XU3 using fully upgraded Ubuntu 14.04. For me, the real culprit seems to be the libpcre3 package according to the gdb backtraces.

My workaround is to upgrade the libpcre3 package (and related -dev, -dbg, and libpcrecpp0 packages) with the .deb binaries from Utopic (Ubuntu 14.10).

cd ~/Downloads
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/182261128/libpcre3_8.35-3ubuntu1_armhf.deb
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/182261132/libpcre3-dev_8.35-3ubuntu1_armhf.deb
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/182261135/libpcre3-dbg_8.35-3ubuntu1_armhf.deb
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/182261131/libpcrecpp0_8.35-3ubuntu1_armhf.deb
sudo dpkg -i libpcre*8.35*.deb

After this, the robot_state_publisher should run fine, even without compiling it from source.

@NStiurca That's interesting. There's also a known issue with rviz and pcre on armhf: http://answers.ros.org/question/21231...

It's possible that recompiling from source simply hides the problem with pcre. That could explain the reproducibility.

tfoote gravatar image tfoote  ( 2015-09-10 21:44:49 -0500 )edit

It may be worth filing a bug report with Ubuntu then since 14.04 is LTS. For my part, I dropped a link to this answer in the question you linked.

NStiurca gravatar image NStiurca  ( 2015-09-11 14:21:37 -0500 )edit

Recompiling robot_state_publisher from source didn't work for me either, but recompiling both robot_state_publisher and the robot_model repo from source did work. I'm yet sure that this is just a bug within libpcre

jbinney gravatar image jbinney  ( 2015-09-12 22:08:50 -0500 )edit

looks like the latest release of robot_model removes the direct dependency on libpcre, which looked like it had been added to get round a previous issue.

Compiling the most up to date robot_model from the repo source with these commits was what was working for me, not the 1.11.7 release

I can confirm that the package ros-indigo-robot-state-publisher_1.10.4-0trusty-20150503-170826-0700_armhf.deb exhibits this problem but the slightly older version does not: ros-indigo-robot-state-publisher_1.10.4-0trusty-20150403-134710-0700_armhf.deb

The crash I get is a segfault -11

[robot_state_publisher-2] process has died [pid 1644, exit code -11, cmd /opt/ros/indigo/lib/robot_state_publisher/robot_state_publisher __name:=robot_state_publisher __log:=/home/linaro/.ros/log/bcc9a036-04c1-11e5-aa48-00037f20a274/robot_state_publisher-2.log].
log file: /home/linaro/.ros/log/bcc9a036-04c1-11e5-aa48-00037f20a274/robot_state_publisher-2*.log

I diffed the files and there's very little difference: Imgur

There's a new version in the pipeline and it has a similar diff: Imgur

Can you try it? http://54.183.65.232/ubuntu/testing/p...

the link you gave is the new robot state publisher, not the previous version

Cubex gravatar image Cubex  ( 2015-05-28 01:40:08 -0500 )edit

still dies for me, probably for the reason above ;)

nickw gravatar image nickw  ( 2015-05-28 03:04:13 -0500 )edit

I tried building robot_state_publisher in a workspace from commit 49bca4e again (had done that previously), and it still crashes (exit code -7, cmd /home/odroid/ros/devel/lib/robot_state_publisher/robot_state_publisher). I think that is as far back as the build you referenced

nickw gravatar image nickw  ( 2015-05-28 03:14:28 -0500 )edit

Here's the old version from before the last update. However I think that the problem is not specifically in this package but possibly an ABI issue with dependencies.

tfoote gravatar image tfoote  ( 2015-05-28 12:19:21 -0500 )edit

ros-shadow-fixed has a newer version of robot_model. please try pulling from there.

tfoote gravatar image tfoote  ( 2015-06-01 14:12:54 -0500 )edit

The newly synced debians have a rebuilt robot_model built on 5/24 which might be worth testing.

tfoote gravatar image tfoote  ( 2015-06-01 14:44:39 -0500 )edit

ros-shadow-fixed is working for me on odroid c1 - will try it on others as well

nickw gravatar image nickw  ( 2015-06-01 14:55:16 -0500 )edit

only worked on that first one - other 3 boards I have tried not fixed - but overlaying workspace still fixes it

I have got to a running system doing this, thanks. Should I report the bug anywhere - not sure where to, as its still not clear why it doesn't work, and what is causing the issue

nickw gravatar image nickw  ( 2015-05-26 14:41:36 -0500 )edit

This suggests that the new build farm which is building Indigo debs for ARM has hit a glitch somewhere. This is probably the best place to report bugs, and @tfoote can take a deeper look at it.

ahendrix gravatar image ahendrix  ( 2015-05-26 15:07:14 -0500 )edit

I suspect the issue will go away when the new Indigo ARM build farm does a complete rebuild of all of the binaries.
