Help needed with URDF task
Hey,
So this is what I am trying to attempt right now:
I have a urdf of a robotic arm from here. I save that particular urdf in the urdf_tutorial folder based on this.
The issue is that the urdf is dependent on more files which are in the meshes folder of jaco_model (first link). In order to be able to access that folder, I cloned that package and modified the urdf so that the links in that file now point towards the corresponding folder. Unfortunately that didn't work. Can anyone let me know what's the correct procedure of doing this?
I keep getting the following error -
[ERROR] [1374693456.287422760]: Could not load resource [/home/viki/jaco_model/meshes/jaco_link_1.dae]: Unable to open file "/home/viki/jaco_model/meshes/jaco_link_1.dae". [ERROR] [1374693456.292026628]: Could not load model '/home/viki/jaco_model/meshes/jaco_link_1.dae' for link 'jaco_link_1': OGRE EXCEPTION(6:FileNotFoundException): Cannot locate resource /home/viki/jaco_model/meshes/jaco_link_1.dae in resource group Autodetect or any other group. in ResourceGroupManager::openResource at /build/buildd/ogre-1.7.4/OgreMain/src/OgreResourceGroupManager.cpp (line 753)
For more details, I am just trying to run that particular model (based on the urdf) in RVIZ so that I can modify the file and notice the changes.
