chefbot_desctiptiondoesn't seem to be release into kinetic. So I am assuming you have installed from source.

Have you source'd your workspace properly? What does the output of echo $ROS_PACKAGE_PATH provide?

Have you installed from source? Have you built the workspace? Please walk through the details.

I am following a book, and I am following as they told me to do. first, they told me to copy hello_world when I run hello_world_publishers it shows the same error

now it is also showing the same error with this chef bot.

and I have also used

echo "source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash" >> ~/.bashrc
