no tf tree for husky simulation in ROS kinect

Greetings, I am trying to simulate Husky from the source file available at official git pages. I am following instructions as mentioned in page http://clearpathrobotics.com/guides/husky/HuskyAMCL.html . I am able to launch Gazebo withe environment + husky, Rviz . I am getting error on launch of amcldemo (error by movebase node) :

Timed out waiting for transfrom from base_link to map to become available before running costmap. Can transform returned after 0.1 timeout was 0.1

viewframes reports that there is no tf data, which is strange for me. Rviz reports non-existant /map frame, and obviously no transform exist between baselink and map. I am aware that current official release is for Indigo only for Husky robot. Any guidance on how I can repair this errror. I believe that there should have a tf tree but noting exists. any idea how this can be handled.

Rgds
