Hi

if I want to start rqt_image_view via rosrun rqt_image_view rqt_image_view or just rqt_image_view then I get the following error:

[ERROR] [1592863606.174353422]: Failed to load nodelet [rqt_image_view/ImageView_0] of type [rqt_image_view/ImageView]: Failed to load library /opt/ros/melodic/lib//librqt_image_view.so.

the same happens for rosrun image_view image_view

Error string: Could not load library (Poco exception = libopencv_core.so.3.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

The problem is that this file /libimage_view.so does not exist. The ros installation works fine for all other things (rviz, rqt_plot, ...). The only problem is the image data.

I also tried to this:

sudo apt-get install ros-melodic-rqt-image-view
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
ros-melodic-rqt-image-view is already the newest version (0.4.14-1bionic.20200530.125139).
ros-melodic-rqt-image-view set to manually installed.
0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 0 not to upgrade.

sudo apt-get install ros-melodic-image-view

Edit: locate lilibopencv_core.so:

user@neworder-ph:~$ locate libopencv_core.so
/home/user/opencv_build/opencv/build/lib/libopencv_core.so
/home/user/opencv_build/opencv/build/lib/libopencv_core.so.4.3
/home/user/opencv_build/opencv/build/lib/libopencv_core.so.4.3.0
/usr/local/lib/libopencv_core.so
/usr/local/lib/libopencv_core.so.4.3
/usr/local/lib/libopencv_core.so.4.3.0

Does someone have a solution to this problem?

Thanks

The problem is that this file /libimage_view.so does not exist.

The error message in each case says: Failed to load library .... I would assume the library path stated does exist since you have the Debian packages installed as mentioned below.

The error message also additionally mentions:

Could not load library (Poco exception = libopencv_core.so.3.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

So what is not found is the OpenCV library. Please edit your question to include the output of the following command: locate libopencv_core.so.

Update:

Ubuntu Bionic (which is the platform targeted by ROS Melodic) ships with OpenCV 3.2 and as such all ROS Debian packages are built and linked against that version. You seem to have a different custom version installed (4.3). You can do either of the following options:

  • replace your custom OpenCV version with the default version provided by Ubuntu or
  • build all ROS packages which use OpenCV from source (which might or might not work out of the box) against the different OpenCV version.

I had removed OpenCV before and at this process I also removed some opencv files, which where installed by ros. So I removed all opencv files on the computer and ros. I install ros new and it works now!

It looks like you need to run:

sudo apt install ros-melodic-rqt-image-view

This will install the required files.
