I am following this tutorial: http://gazebosim.org/tutorials?tut=gu...

When I run Gazebo:

gazebo --verbose ../velodyne.world

This error appears:

[Err] [Plugin.hh:180] Failed to load plugin libvelodyne_plugin.so: libvelodyne_plugin.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

How can I fix this?

What is happening is that Gazebo can't find libvelodyne_plugin.so, this look for libraries in the directories indicate by LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviromental variable, so you need to indicate where to find it changing it.

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:~/velodyne_plugin/build

for gazebo11 make the link to the plugin like this './libvelodyne_plugin.so' in the .world file

That is the case. Thank you! The code on the tutorial missed './'.

Thank you bro, it also worked for me. For all the users that have the same problem, you just need to copy and replace the next code line in your velodyne.world file.

<!-- Attach the plugin to this model -->
<plugin name="velodyne_control" filename="./libvelodyne_plugin.so"/>
