custom plugins causing ignition fortress & garden to fail to load world

Sebastian-Schroder commented 1 year ago

I have created a forum post with relevant information. but I've put the most pressing info here.

Environment

OS Version: 22.04
Source or binary build? binary ignition fortress tested on 2 computers:
1 intel, 1 AMD
both NVIDIA GPUs

Description

Expected behavior: building and running the example system plugin causes gazebo to fail to load and hang on a blank screen
Actual behavior: gazebo should load the selected world and run the plugins alongside it

Steps to reproduce

install gazebo fortress
git clone https://github.com/gazebosim/gz-sim.git -b ign-gazebo-5
cd gz-sim/examples/plugin/system_plugin
update CMakeList.txt by swapping calls from ignition-gazebo5 to ignition gazebo6
update sample_system.sdf to include a model i just added an include tag linking to a fuel model. <include><uri>https://fuel.ignitionrobotics.org/1.0/OpenRobotics/models/Ground Plane</uri></include>
mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && make
add build folder to environment variable IGN_GAZEBO_SYSTEM_PLUGIN_PATH
and finally run the sample system cd .. && ign gazebo sample_system.sdf

notes:

I cloned the ign-gazebo5 branch rather than the ign-gazebo6 despite having gazebo6 installed is because ign-gazebo6 was designed after the name change back to gazebo from ignition, so all the header files reference that naming scheme.

Output

When the plugins are commented out of the world, loading the world results in the following simulation

when the plugins are included. the world looks like this:

gazebo versions:

Verbose output when running with plugins:

I further tested this by trying out downloading gazebo garden and following the same steps on the gz-sim7 branch, resulting in the same errors. I also tried building all of the example plugins in gazebo garden, of which the only ones that didn't work were:

system_plugin
hello world
custom component all of the above hung with a blank simulation as shown above.
rendering_plugins this just couldn't find the shared library, which is probably my fault but i still want to raise it, in case it means anythings.

azeey commented 1 year ago

If you are loading a custom world plugin, none of the default world plugins will be loaded. You'll have to tell Gazebo to load them yourself. Is that what's happening? Also see https://gazebosim.org/api/sim/7/server_config.html

Sebastian-Schroder commented 1 year ago

@azeey thanks, I'll test that when I've got some free time. btw would you happen to know which plugins are loaded by default? thank you for the insight

@azeey thanks, I'll test that when I've got some free time. btw would you happen to know which plugins are loaded by default? thank you for the insight

You should be able to find the default plugins in the default config created in $HOME/.gz/sim/<#>/server.config

Sebastian-Schroder commented 1 year ago

yep works, thank you for the solution
