turtlebot_bringup error - invalid <param> tag [closed]
I installed turtlebot packages from debs. When I run minimal.launch I get the following error
while processing /opt/ros/groovy/stacks/turtlebot/turtlebot_bringup/launch/includes/_robot.launch:
Invalid <param> tag: Cannot load command parameter [robot_description]: no such command [/opt/ros/groovy/share/xacro/xacro.py '/opt/ros/groovy/stacks/turtlebot/turtlebot_description/robots/kobuki_hexagons_kinect.urdf.xacro'].
Param xml is <param command="$(arg urdf_file)" name="robot_description"/>
I am getting this error after running ubuntu updates this afternoon. I did not get it before the update. Is anyone else getting the same error ?
Thanks,
Prasanna
I never update Ubuntu. This helps a lot ;-)
I have the same error than you, can you keep me up to date if you solve the problem or if a bug fix is released ? Thanks !
@CarolineQ Your advice to update Ubuntu, wasn't it ;) Sure I ll update..
@prasanna It works for me the first time I did it... But not this time ! Sorry !
New version of xacro has been released yesterday (now version 1.7.3). Download and test it to see if it solves your problem.
I downloaded a new version of xacro doing : "sudo apt-get update" and then "sudo apt-get install ros-groovy-xacro" and it works fine for me now, even with the roslaunch command.
