I currently have made my map using Hector Slam and saved the map as .yaml file and .pgm .

I have downloaded the Navigation stack as well using git source: https://github.com/ros-planning/navig... . Also ran catkin_make afterwards.

Now, I am trying to implement AMCL by placing my robot( irobot create 2) onto the map and do autonomous mapping.

I am getting an error when i run am amcl file... which says " MapServer could not open <.yaml> file." Please see attached for my code.

Update:

I was able to upload map onto RVIZ, and executed amcl with proper tf/ messages. However, when I move the robot towards a location, the PoseArray points do not move. Please recommend a suggestion. Here is the screen pic. Screenshot from 2017-03-23 14-55-11.png
