2015-06-18 13:36:32 -0500 asked a question rqt_graph: Fatal IO error: client killed

Vitals:

Windows 8.1 PuTTY Xming

I can get xterm working. I can get xeyes working. I can get TurtleSim working.

Just not rqt_graph.

Not really a big deal because I have my linux box right next to me, I just (for work purposes) have a better windows setup and the screens are better.

I've looked/searched and seems like most people were having X11 Forwarding issues.

I'm clearly not having those issues. Is it some weird OpenGL thing that won't work on my Windows 8.1 POS?

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, I just ran into this problem and found it was my own stupidity and not reading CAREFULLY the tutorial instructions.

I have the distro indigo (found by "echo $ROS_DISTRO").

So I thought I followed the tutorial and I missed the one step... BEFORE you call:

catkin_create_pkg beginner_tutorials std_msgs rospy roscpp

Make sure you are in the ~/catkin_ws/src directory. <- that's the step I missed.

I called catkin_create_pkg from the ~/catkin_ws directory. WRONG... it's looking for it in the src directory.

Anyway, hope this helps someone else...
