Managed to solve the problem. It wasn't clear from the instructions but here what I did:
When I ran catkin_make
at the end of the process I had something like this:
Linking CXX shared library /home/rafael/catkin_ws/devel/share/openrave-0.9/plugins/or_rviz_plugin.so
[100%] Built target or_rviz_plugin
(If you missed that output, you can run catkin_make clean
and then rerun catkin_make
)
The important part is the path /home/rafael/catkin_ws/devel/share/openrave-0.9/plugins/or_rviz_plugin.so
I edited my ~/.bashrc
file to include the following line:
export OPENRAVE_PLUGINS=$OPENRAVE_PLUGINS:~/catkin_ws/devel/share/openrave-0.9/plugins
Source your bashrc
so your changes take effect by running source ~/.bashrc
Two ways to test:
1) Run rosrun or_rviz test.py
2) Check if RViz
appears as an OpenRAVE plugin by running openrave --listplugins
and check that RViz
appears under viewer
section.
Then the problem is solved.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing your work!
I installed the
openrave_catkin
andor_rviz
packages in mycatkin_ws/src
and then rancatkin_make
which was successful.I also have the following in my ~/.bashrc file:
I am running:
The Python environment loads up but I get the following OpenRAVE warning:
I was also running
roscore
on another terminal.The problem is that the RViz window is not created and nothing actually happens. It seems that there is something wrong with the RaveDatabase, probably not found?
Any ideas?
