how to run rqt with ubuntu and eloquent, service not available
I have a clean installation of ROS2 Eloquent on an ubuntu 18.04 system. I'm following the Tutorial https://index.ros.org/doc/ros2/Tutori... First, there's a minor typo in that tutorial in Section 4, Install rqt. The command line
sudo apt install ros-{distro}-rqt-*
will install everything EXCEPT the ros-eloquent-rqt package itself. The command should be changed to:
sudo apt install ros-{distro}-rqt*
More importantly, when I attempt to start rqt with the command line rqt, I get the message service not available, waiting again...
What am I missing? Prior to this section of the tutorial, the turtlesim starts and functions correctly. I've tried to start rqt both with and without the turtlesim running, but the results are the same.
Same for me - "service not available..."
Did you get this error right away or only after using a specific plugin? I experienced the same issue after adding rqt_tf_tree and was wondering if this was the case for you too.
