Hi, Please update sub-modules and try again. git submodule update --init --recursive
Thanks!
I ran git submodule update --init --recursive
within libfranka and recompiled the library. I'm still running into the same issue.
However, I have discovered that I can successfully run the examples within libfranka (like libfranka/examples/communication_test.cpp). The incompatibility problem just occurs when I try to use communication_test
with franka_ros.
I fixed the issue. It turns out there were a couple problems going on:
I had the ros-noetic-libfranka library installed on my machine which was interfering which my version of libfranka built from source like in this other issue.
SOLUTION: I uninstalled the library using sudo apt remove ros-noetic-libfranka
and recompiled my catkin_ws.
I didn't build the libfranka library into a debian package since that step was marked as optional in the installation guide. This caused franka_ros to try to use libfranka 0.8.0 (which I didn't install) instead of the correct 0.9.2 version when I ran catkin_make -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DFranka_DIR:PATH=../libfranka/build
. This other issue was similar to the problem I was facing.
SOLUTION: I built the debian package using the following commands in my libfranka/build
directory:
cpack -G DEB
sudo dpkg -i libfranka-0.9.2-x86_64.deb
Then in my catkin_ws, I could compile franka_ros properly using:
catkin_make -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
source devel/setup.sh
I ended up running everything in a Docker Container. The directions and Dockerfile for setting up this process are here.
ROS 1 version: Noetic Ubuntu version: 20.04.6 Robot system version: 4.2.2 (pandas) Robot / Gripper Server version: 5/3 libfranka version: 0.9.2 franka_ros version: 0.9.1
When I run the communication test (
sudo communication_test 192.168.1.2
), I receive the following error:According to the compatibility docs, my installed versions of the libraries should be correct, so I am not sure what the issue is. Any ideas?
