Moveit Path Constraint Failure

I'm using the moveit_commander interface on the Fetch robot and trying to add a path constraint. Here's some example code:

    constraints = Constraints()
    oc = OrientationConstraint()
    oc.link_name = "wrist_roll_link"
    oc.header.frame_id = "base_link"
    oc.weight = 1.0
    oc.orientation = orientation #current wrist_roll_link orientation
    oc.absolute_x_axis_tolerance = 3.14
    oc.absolute_y_axis_tolerance = 3.14
    oc.absolute_z_axis_tolerance = 3.14
    constraints.orientation_constraints.append(oc)
    move_group.set_path_constraints(constraints)

Moveit still finds a plan, but the plan is seems to ignore the constraints and outputs an error that says:

/move_group GetPositionIK:1025: 0 is < negative number >

The results are the same for position and orientation constraints. The same code seemed to work in the past. Any ideas would be welcome!

did you figure this out?

The example you give is not restricting the orientation at all (tolerance = pi).

I didn't figure it out unfortunately. You're right that in my example the tolerance is just set to pi. I was using that code to test if the error still occurs when there isn't any constraint and it does. Even when you make the tolerance = pi, it still gives an error.

And when the tolerance is not pi, it gives an error and ignores the constraint.
