[jazzy] node not starting #212

Is this behavior also observed when using SpinVIew? Camera works in SpinView under Ubuntu 22.04. However, in Ubuntu 24.04 the currently available versions of SpinView don't work.

Describe the bug I installed the spinnaker-camera-driver under ROS2 Jazzy Jalisco using the standard installation method: sudo apt install ros-jazzy-spinnaker-camera-driver As there is no valid version for Spinnaker under Ubuntu 24.04, I followed the instruction to set the driver up for use without Spinnaker SDK. I confirmed the correct setup. Starting the node, it throws an exception and exits with what(): Spinnaker: System instance cannot be acquired. The spinnaker-camera-driver works with this camera on another PC with Ubuntu 22.04 and ROS2 Humble and Spinnaker 3.2.0.62 installed.

I fixed it! It is necessary to add an environment variable: export SPINNAKER_GENTL64_CTI=/opt/ros/jazzy/lib/spinnaker-gentl/Spinnaker_GenTL.cti

I'd propose to add this to the script linux_setup_flir or in the installation process, setting the environment variable in the local_setup files of this package, in case it isn't set already.
