get_fk works but get_ik doesn't from same service node

edit

Hello all,

I am trying to access my rosservice node made by the warehouse arm navigation wizard. The service is running but when I try to execute a simple ik calculation (through the get_ik tutorial) my code crashes here:

  if(ik_client.call(gpik_req, gpik_res))

with a console error:

martin@ubuntu:~# rosrun H20_robot_arm_navigation get_left_ik

[ERROR] [1360706997.071244382]: Inverse kinematics service call failed

I put some ROS_INFO lines for the purposes of debugging: Here is the full code that I used from the tutorials:

#include <ros/ros.h>
#include <kinematics_msgs/GetKinematicSolverInfo.h>
#include <kinematics_msgs/GetPositionIK.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv){
  ros::init (argc, argv, "get_ik");
  ros::NodeHandle rh;



  ros::service::waitForService("H20_robot_left_arm_kinematics/get_ik_solver_info");
  ros::service::waitForService("H20_robot_left_arm_kinematics/get_ik");

  ros::ServiceClient query_client = rh.serviceClient<kinematics_msgs::GetKinematicSolverInfo>("H20_robot_left_arm_kinematics/get_ik_solver_info");
  ros::ServiceClient ik_client = rh.serviceClient<kinematics_msgs::GetPositionIK>("H20_robot_left_arm_kinematics/get_ik");

  // define the service message
  kinematics_msgs::GetKinematicSolverInfo::Request request;
  kinematics_msgs::GetKinematicSolverInfo::Response response;

  if(query_client.call(request,response))
  {
    for(unsigned int i=0; i< response.kinematic_solver_info.joint_names.size(); i++)
    {
      ROS_DEBUG("Joint: %d %s",i,response.kinematic_solver_info.joint_names[i].c_str());
    }
  }
  else
  {
    ROS_ERROR("Could not call query service");
    ros::shutdown();
    exit(1);
  }

ROS_INFO(" 3 ");
 for(unsigned int i=0; i< response.kinematic_solver_info.joint_names.size(); i++)
  {
    gpik_req.ik_request.ik_seed_state.joint_state.position[i] = (response.kinematic_solver_info.limits[i].min_position + response.kinematic_solver_info.limits[i].max_position)/2.0;

  }
ROS_INFO(" 4 ");
  if(ik_client.call(gpik_req, gpik_res))
  {


ROS_INFO(" 5 ");
    if(gpik_res.error_code.val == gpik_res.error_code.SUCCESS)
      for(unsigned int i=0; i < gpik_res.solution.joint_state.name.size(); i ++)
        ROS_INFO("Joint: %s %f",gpik_res.solution.joint_state.name[i].c_str(),gpik_res.solution.joint_state.position[i]);
    else
      ROS_ERROR("Inverse kinematics failed");
  }
  else
    ROS_ERROR("Inverse kinematics service call failed");
  ros::shutdown();
}

Does anyone know what is going wrong? I used the get_fk tutorial.

Kind Regards, Martin
