How to properly use the localization mode of slam_toolbox

edit

Hi, I am still a newbie in ROS and I came across slam_toolbox which intrigued me to try out. I looked at the roscon video as well the git repository. With these, I tried to create a map using a bag file from MIT and I was successful in generating one. But when I tried to use the localization mode of the slam_toolbox it initialises perfectly, but when I try to re-run the same bag to check if it's localizing properly it throws me this error,

My launch file is as follows:

<launch>
  <node pkg="slam_toolbox" type="localization_slam_toolbox_node" name="slam_toolbox" output="screen">
    <rosparam command="load" file="$(find slam_toolbox)/config/localization.yaml" />
  </node>
    <node type="rviz" name="rviz" pkg="rviz" args="-d $(find slam_toolbox)/rviz/mera_rviz.rviz" />
    <param name="/use_sim_time" value="true"/>
</launch>

My localization.yaml file is the same as default except the following params as follows:

odom_frame: odom_combined
map_frame: map
base_frame: base_footprint
scan_topic: /base_scan
mode: localization
map_file_name: /home/mohammed-azeem/slam_toolbox_ws/src/slam_toolbox-noetic-devel/maps/2011-01-24-06-18-27/t2
map_start_pose: [0.0, 0.0, 0.0]

After creating the map, i serialized the map and even deserialized the same while running the localization mode. I have attached my tf tree as well, I sense there's some error in tf but I can't quite figure it out and IDK where I am going wrong, so can someone please point out my mistake. I am using ROS Noetic on Ubunutu 20.04.
