gazebo7 hardware_interface/PositionJointInterface EffortJointInterfacerobot being hung up

I simulate my robot with ros-indigo&&gazebo2 every thing is ok,but when I update gazebo2 to gazebo7 or update ros-indigo to ros-kinetic(default gazebo7) I meet some weird thing.

transmissioninterface/SimpleTransmission <joint name="${jointname}"> hardwareinterface/>EffortJointInterface hardwareinterface/>EffortJointInterface 1 /xacro:macro

when I set EffortJointInterface gazebo7 is ok

but when I set PositionJointInterface， my robot looks like being hung up, it cannot leave the Z axis ,and even can leave the ground

transmissioninterface/SimpleTransmission <joint name="${jointname}"> hardwareinterface/PositionJointInterface hardwareinterface/PositionJointInterface 1 /xacro:macro

I cannot handle this problem

This is a known problem with Gazebo 7. The solution for me was to use Gazebo 9 and the latest (at the time) version of gazebo_ros_pkgs from source. Check the accepted answer on the question I posted.
