Hello, everyone! I'm trying to run Moveit benchmarking on my robot, but when I start the program, I get this error.

[ERROR] [1642489812.063689032]: No planning plugins have been loaded. Nothing to do for the benchmarking service.
[ERROR] [1642489812.063743391]: No planning interfaces configured.  Did you call BenchmarkExecutor::initialize?
[ERROR] [1642489812.063762958]: Failed to run all benchmarks

This has confused me for a couple days. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. P.S. My ROS distro is melodic.

launch file:

<launch>
  <!-- benchmark options file -->
  <arg name="bench_opts" default="$(find th12_moveit_benchmarking)/config/config.yaml"/>

  <!-- Load robot settings -->
  <include file="$(find th12_moveit_config)/launch/planning_context.launch">
    <arg name="load_robot_description" value="true"/>
  </include>

  <!-- Load all planning pipelines that will be benchmarked -->
  <include ns="moveit_run_benchmark/ompl" file="$(find th12_moveit_config)/launch/planning_pipeline.launch.xml">
    <arg name="pipeline" value="ompl" />
  </include>

  <!-- Load warehouse containing scenes and queries to benchmark -->
  <include file="$(find th12_moveit_config)/launch/default_warehouse_db.launch" />

  <!-- Launch benchmark node -->
  <node name="moveit_run_benchmark" pkg="moveit_ros_benchmarks" type="moveit_run_benchmark" output="screen" required="true">
    <rosparam command="load" file="$(arg bench_opts)"/>
  </node>
</launch>

It turns out that I was reading the Noetic MoveIt benchmarking tutorial, so the same configuration file would run wrong on Melodic. Then I modified the benchmark_config file and it was able to generate log files successfully. Here's the content:

benchmark_config:

    warehouse:
        host: 127.0.0.1
        port: 33829
        scene_name: Scene1     # Required

    parameters:
        name: Scene1Pick1
        runs: 10
        group: arm       # Required
        timeout: 20.0
        output_directory: /home/matt/catkin_ws/src/th12_robot/th12_moveit_benchmarking/log/
        queries: Pick1
        start_states: Start1

    planners:
        - plugin: ompl_interface/OMPLPlanner
          planners:
            - RRTConnectkConfigDefault # Default planner parameters

The main difference is between planning_pipelines and planners.
