Gazebo controller spawner warning

$

Hi everyone. I have a problem and I hope you can help me. :) I have a robot: Two Schunk lwa4d arms mounted on a box. I can load this robot in gazebo. I can load this robot in moveit + rviz and plan path for it. But the problem is making connection between these two. So far, I am unable of doing so. I know that in both sides, gazebo and moveit, i need to have some modifications. But my major suspicion is a warning message that I receive when launching my robot in gazebo, where it warns: > [WARN] [WallTime: 1438070984.731293] [4.961000] Controller Spawner couldn't find the expected controller_manager ROS interface.>> [WARN] [WallTime: 1438070984.740924] [4.954000] Controller Spawner couldn't find the expected controller_manager ROS interface. I know it has something to do with controller_manager. In my launch file, I have: What I know for now is that each warning is related to one control spawning. My file, joint_state_controller.yaml is very small: joint_state_controller: type: joint_state_controller/JointStateController publish_rate: 50 ROS is able to locate it. So the problem shouldn't be finding the file. But in spawning it using controller spawner, something is going wrong. I tried to copy-paste the other file, TwoArm_arm_controller_v2.yaml, here too. But I couldn't format it in a good way to be easily readable. But the basic structure is something like: ## joint_names joint_names: [arm1_1_joint, arm1_2_joint, arm1_3_joint, arm1_4_joint, arm1_5_joint, arm1_6_joint, arm1_7_joint, arm2_1_joint, arm2_2_joint, arm2_3_joint, arm2_4_joint, arm2_5_joint, arm2_6_joint, arm2_7_joint] ## joint trajectory controller arm_controller: type: position_controllers/JointTrajectoryController joints: - arm1_1_joint ... - arm1_7_joint - arm2_1_joint ... - arm2_7_joint constraints: goal_time: 0.6 stopped_velocity_tolerance: 0.05 arm1_1_joint: {trajectory: 0.1, goal: 0.1} ... arm2_7_joint: {trajectory: 0.1, goal: 0.1} stop_trajectory_duration: 0.5 state_publish_rate: 25 action_monitor_rate: 10 What I could find by now is that there may be two reasons for this warning: - controller manager not running. - not launching the spawned script in the same namespace as the controller manager. But honestly, I don't know how to move forward from this point. I know that controller_manager has been installed: > ros@ros:~/Documents/Damon_CPP/ROS_Workspace/devel$ rospack find controller_manager> /opt/ros/indigo/share/controller_manager Unfortunately I don't know how to remove the warnings. I have the feeling that if Moveit can't communicate with gazebo, this warning can be a reason. Any help is highly appreciated. :) UPDATE: After launching my robot in gazebo, I tried this command: > ros@ros:~$ rosrun controller_manager controller_manager list Nothing appears. The terminal goes frozen. I asked the same thing from my friend whose robot (2 U10 arms on a box) is loaded and controlled properly by moveit. Here is his result: > merosy@MeRoSy-1:~$ rosrun controller_manager controller_manager list> joint_state_controller - hardware_interface::JointStateInterface ( running )> arm_controller - hardware_interface::PositionJointInterface ( running ) Seemingly my controller_manager is not working properly. Any suggestion?
