Well there are plenty of hints in this message. Did you specify generate_messages correctly with all dependencies? Why does he search the Float64 message in a package named 'velocity_project'? This message is defined in 'std_msgs'.

Aside from the error of accessing a Float64 from "velocity project" (if thats even what is being said, looks like its just originating there, to me), the issue is still present as to what to do in terms of catkin_simple when generating a new service or message without generate_messages.
