Joint trajectory action rejected: Controller not connected

edit

Hello,

i get the following error when i try to connect MoveIt! to a KUKA Agilus via the kuka_experimental package. I try to first use the simulation environment.

[ERROR] [1466076139.148929605]: Joint trajectory action rejected: waiting for (initial) feedback from controller
[ WARN] [1466076139.149173520]: Controller  failed with error code INVALID_GOAL
[ WARN] [1466076139.149246314]: Controller handle  reports status FAILED

I suppose the controller is not connected to the joint_trajectory_action topic. However, my controller is running:

$ rosrun controller_manager controller_manager list
joint_state_controller - hardware_interface::JointStateInterface ( running )

How can i efficiently debug the problem?

EDIT:

I have loaded the hardware_controllers.yaml which isnt a controller_list and i get

[ERROR] [1466425266.321644220]: No controller_list specified.

Do i have to create a separate controller_list or should hardware_controller.yaml be formatted to be a controller_list?

These are (some of) the topics i see:

/joint_states
/joint_trajectory_action/cancel
/joint_trajectory_action/feedback
/joint_trajectory_action/goal
/joint_trajectory_action/result
/joint_trajectory_action/status
...
/position_trajectory_controller/command
/position_trajectory_controller/follow_joint_trajectory/cancel
/position_trajectory_controller/follow_joint_trajectory/feedback
/position_trajectory_controller/follow_joint_trajectory/goal
/position_trajectory_controller/follow_joint_trajectory/result
/position_trajectory_controller/follow_joint_trajectory/status
