Hello all, while trying to build my package in ROS, after typing sudo make in the terminal, i have:
make: rospack: Command not found Makefile:1: /cmake.mk: No such file or directory make: * No rule to make target `/cmake.mk'. Stop.
I think that should be a permission problem, so that root can not see rospack. Can anyone help me with that please? How shall i solve this?
Thanks
Why do you need to execute "make" as root?
When you do "sudo make" all the environment variables needed for ROS to work (set by /opt/ros/groovy/setup.bash) are not set any more, that is why rospack can not be found.
You should, either:
-Not run make as root (recommended)
or
-Set /opt/ros/groovy/setup.bash for the root user
Thanks for your answers first of all, but running not as root does not help. I also found this: http://answers.ros.org/question/30554/rospack-command-not-found-in-makefile-when-trying-to-build/ but have no idea how he has the problem solved ! :(
I'd seriously advise against option (2). Only do that when you know *exactly* what you're doing *and* have a good reason to *and* made sure you're not accidentally changing files in /opt/ros/*. A good rule of thumb is that if you know enough to safely do this, you probably know a better way, too. :)
As said $ make produces: [rospack] Warning: error while crawling /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info: boost::filesystem::directory_iterator::construct: Permission denied: "/opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info" [rospack] Warning: error while looking for /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info/rospack_nosubdirs: boost::filesystem::status: Permission denied: "/opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info/rospack_nosubdirs" [rospack] Warning: error while looking for /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info/manifest.xml: boost::filesystem::status: Permission denied: "/opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info/manifest.xml" [rospack] Warning: error while crawling /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info: boost::filesystem::directory_iterator::construct: Permission denied: "/opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info" [rospack] Warning: error while crawling /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/launch: boost::filesystem::directory_iterato
@Yami: If you reinstall ros, everything in /opt/ros should be readable by your normal user. Whenever you want to modify something, copy it to your home dir instead and put that dir on your ROS_PACKAGE_PATH. That way you can safely edit stuff.
Thanks Martin. Now I have: ~/ros_stacks/simple_navigation_goals$ ls -l drwxrwxr-x 2 nazemi nazemi 4096 Aug 30 08:50 bin drwxrwxr-x 3 nazemi nazemi 4096 Aug 30 12:26 build -rw-rw-r-- 1 nazemi nazemi 1517 Aug 30 10:23 CMakeLists.txt drwxrwxr-x 3 nazemi nazemi 4096 Aug 29 16:30 include -rw-rw-r-- 1 nazemi nazemi 128 Aug 29 16:30 mainpage.dox -rw-rw-r-- 1 nazemi nazemi 41 Aug 29 16:30 Makefile -rw-rw-r-- 1 nazemi nazemi 404 Aug 30 09:37 manifest.xml drwxrwxr-x 2 nazemi nazemi 4096 Aug 30 09:00 src
Hi again, I got that problem solved, by changing the Cmake list a bit. now following the simple navigation tutorial, after running the executable, Waiting for the move_base action server to come up waits forever. Can anyone suggest me sth plz? thx
This is not a forum, so please open a new question for that.

You shouldn't be doing make as root.
in this case i just have a pile of errors and warnings,as below: $ make [rospack] Warning: error while crawling /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info: boost::filesystem::directory_iterator::construct: Permission denied: "/opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info" [rospack] Warning: error while looking for /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info/rospack_nosubdirs: boost::filesystem::status: Permission denied: "/opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info/rospack_nosubdirs" [rospack] Warning: error while looking for /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info/manifest.xml: boost::filesystem::status: Permission denied: "/opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info/manifest.xml" [rospack] Warning: error while crawling /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info: boost::filesystem::directory_iterator::construct: Permission denied: "/opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/info" [rospack] Warning: error while crawling /opt/ros/fuerte/stacks/openni_camera/launch: boost::filesystem::directory_iterato
If you have run make as root somewhere in your /opt/ros/fuerte folder, you've probably messed up the installation. Your best bet of recovery is to uninstall all ros-fuerte-* packages (using Synaptic, aptitude, whatever) and reinstall them. Then never run make as root again.
no i did not do that in /opt/ros/fuerte folder, but in the folder that my new package is placed: ~/ros_stacks/simple_navigation_goals$
