Hitesh,

If you're trying to run the navigation stack on your own robot, I'd suggest reading the following tutorial first, http://www.ros.org/wiki/navigation/Tutorials/RobotSetup/, as it will explain how the pieces of the navigation stack work and how you'll need to configure your robot.

From the errors you listed, it looks like your robot may not be publishing odometry information to the navigation stack. Also, amcl will not work without a static map... so that's expected.

Hopefully, the tutorial will help, feel free to post again if you have other questions,

Eitan

Hi all,
I've been trying to run the navigation stack. However, upon running move_base.launch, i get the following message:

[ WARN] 1271162502.543875000: Costmap2DROS transform timeout. Current time: 1271162502.5438, global_pose stamp: 1271162501.8677, tolerance: 0.3000

I tried changing the tolerance value to 1. move_base.launch starts with the following:
[ INFO] 1271162733.968657000: Subscribed to Topics: laser_scan_sensor
[ INFO] 1271162734.066727000: MAP SIZE: 199, 199

A second later, i start getting these messages:

[ WARN] 1271162749.245438000: MessageNotifier [topic=scan, target=/odom /base_laser ]: Dropped 100.00% of messages so far. Please turn the [ros.costmap_2d.message_notifier] rosconsole logger to DEBUG for more information.

rxconsole gives the following:
Request for map failed, trying again...  Warn /amcl
This could be because i'm not using any static map. Even so, move_base is not publishing any messages out.

Any help would be appreciated. I'm not able to figure out where the problem is.
