Figured it out. Just needing to restart roscore in the end, although It seems like too simple of a fix.

It's an urdf file in the urdf_tutorial package, but I posted for you as well.

I've been following the tutorial from: http://wiki.ros.org/urdf/Tutorials/Bu...

I am currently attempting to run the 4th example 'Origins' using the command:

roslaunch urdf_tutorial display.launch model:=urdf/03-origins.urdf

However, every time I get an error in Rviz, essentially the leg is sticking straight through the middle of the base rather than being traslated to the side. I'm in the urdf_tutorial directory and have installed the joint_state_publisher package, so these are not the issues.

I'm encountering the error 'No transform from [right_leg] to [base_link]' and 'No tf data. Actual error: Fixed Frame [base_link] does not exist'. Any ideas on how to fix this? (If I was able to, I would upload a screenshot as well)

The urdf file I'm using is the same as from the tutorial, but posted below as well.
