Error: ur5_ros-gazebo package not found
Hi! I cloned a package into my catkin_ws/src folder with 'git clone https://github.com/lihuang3/ur5_ROS-G... , then catkin_make & source devel/setup.bash (all works fine)

What am I doing wrong? I am using Ubuntu 16.04
Did you remember to build the workspace? You can't just clone a package and try execute scripts/binaries in it.
Oh I thought catkin_make would be enough. I will try catkin build first thing tomorrow. Thank you for the fast reply :)
catkin_makeis enough. That is what "building your workspace" means.Did you also
source /path/to/your/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash?The only error I see when I look at the package on github is that the python file is named
testmotion.pyinstead oftesmotion.pyThat would become a problem if/when
roslaunchis able to find the package. That isn't happening according to what @lr_k123 tells us, so that's something to fix first.
