xacro command not found
I am trying to run a xacro command to generate the latest baxter.srdf file to use with Moveit config. I found the command in a readme file in the baxter_moveit_config folder. It has been modified to give the paths to the files since it was having trouble finding them:
xacro --inorder ~/ros_ws/src/moveit_robots/baxter/baxter_moveit_config/config/baxter.srdf.xacro left_electric_gripper:=true right_electric_gripper:=true left_tip_name:=left_gripper right_tip_name:=right_gripper >> ~/ros_ws/src/moveit_robots/baxter/baxter_moveit_config/config/baxter.srdf
I keep getting:
xacro: command not found
I have sourced everything properly:
source /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash
I even ran a catkin_make and tried it again. When I run rospack find xacro it returns the location of it. I am running it on Ubuntu 14.04 with Ros Indigo.
printenv | grep ROS output:
ROS_ROOT=/opt/ros/indigo/share/ros
ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=/home/baxter/ros_ws/src:/opt/ros/indigo/share:/opt/ros/indigo/stacks
ROS_MASTER_URI=http://localhost:11311
ROS_DISTRO=indigo
ROS_ETC_DIR=/opt/ros/indigo/etc/ros
Any suggestions?
How have you installed ROS? The xacro binary should be located at
/opt/ros/<version>/bin/xacroYou can install it manually withsudo apt-get install ros-<version>-xacroIt is installed and I have ran it many times. I can try manually installing the xacro package again to see if that fixes it though. Here is were rospack find says it is: /opt/ros/indigo/share/xacro
Can you add the output of the linux command
printenv | grep ROSto your question, so we can check your environment.I ran the install and the rospack find came back with the same location. I get the same command not found message when I run the xacro command.
