Gazebo Model spawn service failed #26

Closed aleenalentin closed 1 year ago

aleenalentin commented 1 year ago

I am getting the following error when I launched this command

ros2 launch xarm_gazebo xarm6_beside_table_gazebo.launch.py
[spawn_entity.py-4] [INFO] [1675794290.587042536] [spawn_entity]: Waiting for entity xml on robot_description

Any fix will be appreciated

Using: Ubuntu 22.04 ROS 2 Humble

Update: It is working now

Initially, when we launch the command, the robot model spawning is failed but after some time the table appears in Gazebo. I have relaunched the command and then robot spawning is working. It seems like if the table model is in the MODEL path, the spawning will be always successful
