I am new to universal_robots and want to start doing simulations in gazebo with the ur5. After following the ur-gazebo installation instructions I tried

$ roslaunch ur_gazebo ur5.launch

However, I get many errors and do not know how and where to fix them.

Maybe I need to change/add something in a urdf/xacro file for the gazebo_ros_control plugin ( ??), but I don't know which file and what to do. Can someone help me?

I am using Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS, ros kinetic ,and gazebo 7

This is the log info::

$roslaunch ur_gazebo ur3.launch ... logging to /home/philips/.ros/log/703f6ffa-6a81-11e9-9117-6038e0d93719/roslaunch-philips-HP-EliteDesk-800-G1-SFF-21350.log Checking log directory for disk usage. This may take awhile. Press Ctrl-C to interrupt Done checking log file disk usage. Usage is <1GB.

Hey.

But are you able to visualize the robot?

Hey, Yes the robot is vizualized in the gazebo world.

Hey!

From the log you have posted, you can see that

[ WARN] [1556543979.957337287, 0.155000000]: Please set gazebo_pid parameters, switch to the VelocityJointInterface or EffortJointInterface, or upgrade to Gazebo 9.
[ WARN] [1556543979.957347145, 0.155000000]: For details, see https://github.com/ros-simulation/gazebo_ros_pkgs/issues/612

You can check that github link to tackle the issue if you want all the errors to be gone.

But as an alternate, you can also look into this issue from github

This will solve your problems.

Hey, thank you for answering! I tried to clone the package from https://github.com/ros-simulation/gaz... . I try to launch the gazebo.launch file, but it shows the following:

philips@philips-HP-EliteDesk-800-G1-SFF:~/catkin_ws$ source devel/setup.bash
philips@philips-HP-EliteDesk-800-G1-SFF:~/catkin_ws$ ls -a
.  ..  build  .catkin_workspace  devel  mimic_joint_gazebo_tutorial  roboticsgroup_gazebo_plugins  src
philips@philips-HP-EliteDesk-800-G1-SFF:~/catkin_ws$ ls mimic_joint_gazebo_tutorial/launch
gazebo.launch  show_model_rviz.launch
philips@philips-HP-EliteDesk-800-G1-SFF:~/catkin_ws$ roslaunch mimic_joint_gazebo_tutorial gazebo.launch
[gazebo.launch] is neither a launch file in package [mimic_joint_gazebo_tutorial] nor is [mimic_joint_gazebo_tutorial] a launch file name
The traceback for the exception was written to the log file

Or would you advice to follow the alternative option(https://github.com/ros-industrial/universal)

You can try the alternate link!

But as such you can just leave the bug "not noticed" and start working on your intended application. There won't be any problem.

Okay thank you!
