ROS Kinetic 'catkin_make' fails because PROJECT_NAME is set to Project
I have been using ROS Kinetic for a while,but I do not have very much experience with CMake. Today when I went to make a new catkin workspace following the ROS tutorials page (http://wiki.ros.org/catkin/Tutorials/...) I get a CMake Error stating that PROJECT_NAME is set to Project, which is invalid. I have never run into this issue with any of my other work spaces I have created.
I do not want to mess with toplevel.cmake out of fear of screwing up my other work spaces.
Any ideas why this is happening?
The error message:
CMake Error at /opt/ros/kinetic/share/catkin/cmake/catkin_package.cmake:91 (message):
catkin_package() PROJECT_NAME is set to 'Project', which is not a valid
project name. You must call project() before calling catkin_package().

Thank you.
As @Pulkit123 asks: please show the
CMakeLists.txt
of your ROS package.I edited the question to show the correct file. However it is a sym link to
toplevel.cmake
, so I think they are the same. Maybe that is the issue? I am new to cmake.
