Hi, I installed Moveit and its dependencies on ROS Noetic, and I am trying to follow this tutorial:

https://ros-planning.github.io/moveit...

I have both tried with panda_arm_hand.urdf.xacro and other .urdf or .xacro or .dae: no problem in generating collision matrix, but when I try to add the virtual joint the Setup Assistant window is closed with this error:

[ERROR] [1600333582.658529467]: Could not find the 'robot' element in the xml file
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  Unable to update the SRDF Model

Opening the file, I can definitely see the robot tag. So why does this error happen??

As suggested by rhaschke in the git issue, a recent fix in srdfdom package solved the problem I proposed. So to solve the problem ensure to be using at least srdfdom 0.6.2 version.
