Hi, Anyone know how to solve this? Somehow it happened when I was trying to roslaunch after i edit my launch file, I can't even roscore now. This is the output when I roscore.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/ros/fuerte/bin/roscore", line 62, in <module>
    import roslaunch
  File "/opt/ros/fuerte/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/roslaunch/__init__.py", line 43, in <module>
    from . import param_dump as roslaunch_param_dump
  File "/opt/ros/fuerte/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/roslaunch/param_dump.py", line 40, in <module>
    import roslaunch.config
  File "/opt/ros/fuerte/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/roslaunch/config.py", line 51, in <module>
    import roslaunch.xmlloader
ValueError: bad marshal data (string ref out of range)

How did you edit your launch file?

Just trying to add a launch code to call my 'map.yaml' file when the launch file run.. I refer this code from others. <arg name="map" default="blank_map.yaml"/> <node name="map_server" pkg="map_server" type="map_server" args="$(%my-own-directory5)/maps/$(arg map)"/>

If you recover the launch file to the version before you edited, can it works?

Problem solved. Reinstall python according to your current version will do.
