I am using ubuntu 16.04 and kinetic. I am trying to construct a urdf file, and I draw 3D models in Fusion360, and export it as stl file.

But I get error when launching urdf:

[ERROR] [1545688277.584461755]: Error retrieving file [file:///opt/ros/kinetic/share/urdf_tutorial/meshes/LD/Body.stl]: Couldn't open file /opt/ros/kinetic/share/urdf_tutorial/meshes/LD/Body.stl

urdf:

<link name="body">
<visual>
    <origin rpy="0 0 0" xyz="0 0 0.025"/>
    <geometry>
        <!-- <box size="0.18 0.18 0.05"/> -->
        <!-- <mesh filename="package://urdf_tutorial/meshes/HD/Body.stl"/> -->
        <mesh filename="package://urdf_tutorial/meshes/LD/Body.stl"/>
    </geometry>
    <material name="gray">
        <color rgba="0.3 0.3 0.3 1.0"/>
    </material>
</visual>
</link>

I uploaded the stl file to google drive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kYP2...

I check the path and the file name, and I also tried the dae file that provided by the urdf tutorial. and it works fine though. and I tried convert the stl file to dae file, but fail again with the same issue.

please help me with that.

The error shown is typically caused by the path to the file being incorrect and/or the filename and/or the extension no having the correct case.

What is the output of:

ls -al `rospack find urdf_tutorial`/meshes/LD/Body.stl
