ImportError: cannot import name 'Log' from 'rosgraph_msgs.msg'

[clebio]

On a new install of Foxy Fitzroy on Ubuntu Focal, I was trying to run roslaunch gazebo_simulation_scene gazebo_simulation_scene.launch. However, that fails with the titular error message. To simply this further, just trying to import roslaunch does the same:

$ python -c 'import roslaunch'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/roslaunch/__init__.py", line 62, in <module>
    from .scriptapi import ROSLaunch
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/roslaunch/scriptapi.py", line 42, in <module>
    import roslaunch.parent
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/roslaunch/parent.py", line 54, in <module>
    import roslaunch.server
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/roslaunch/server.py", line 79, in <module>
    from rosgraph_msgs.msg import Log
ImportError: cannot import name 'Log' from 'rosgraph_msgs.msg' (/opt/ros/foxy/lib/python3.8/site-packages/rosgraph_msgs/msg/__init__.py)

This is on a new ROS setup on Ubuntu:

$ printenv | grep ROS

ROS_PYTHON_VERSION=3
ROS_LOCALHOST_ONLY=0
ROS_DISTRO=foxy

Alright, to answer everyone before closing -- though I presume you've already found out.

This repository only hosts the rosgraph_msgs package for ROS 1. The rosgraph_msgs package for ROS 2 lives in https://github.com/ros2/common_interfaces, but it doesn't hold the Log message anymore. It has been relocated to the rcl_interfaces package.

So, how to solve this issue?

I don't think you can use ros2 with gazebo, at least it's not the recommended version. If you look at the tutorial, it recommends ros noetic among others. Thought I'd post because I was banging my head against a while with this.

This shows which combinations of versions you can use!

I used ros2 foxy with Gazebo and it workes fine

Solution: use ros2 launch instead of roslaunch.

[lisimmy]

$ printenv | grep ROS ROS_VERSION=2

use ros2 xxx eg： ros2 topic list

Call ros2 <command> -h for more detailed usage.

[dieter-aerit]

ros2 launch rosbridge_server rosbridge_websocket_launch.xml solves it in my case.

[devrajshetake]

I am using ros2 launch still getting the same error.

Hello found the solution Use

[litouxinxin]

Confirm whether your file type is .lauch or .py, and then use the ros2 lauch command to run it. ros2 launch carla_ros_bridge carla_ros_bridge.launch.py.
