If you observed an error or warning message, I would suggest to include it, verbatim, in your question text.

That might help others figure out why it's not working for you.

See this question. Xacro in ROS2 does not seem to support the package tag. Try using <mesh filename="file://$(robot_description)/meshes/base.stl"/> instead.
