Gazebo Static Map Plugin not loading.
I am trying to use the Gazebo static map plugin following the tutorial at http://gazebosim.org/tutorials?tut=st.... However, when I launch Gazebo, with the command gazebo --verbose static_map_plugin.world, the world appears white, and an error shows in the console.
[Err] [Plugin.hh:180] Failed to load plugin libStaticMapPlugin.so: libStaticMapPlugin.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I've looked throughout my computer, but I can't find this file, and as far as I can tell, it should come with Gazebo. What do I need to do to fix this?
This is on Gazebo 9.0.0 with ROS Melodic on Ubuntu 18.04.
the link appears to be broken. Can you fix it? I never heard of Static Map Plugin and was not able to find any reference on google search.
I've fixed the link. I made a mistake copying it over from ROS answers.
I found this plugin in folder
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gazebo-7/plugins.I looked in that location, and the
libStaticMapPlugin.sofile isn't there. I have installed Gazebo through theros-melodic-desktop-fullpackage. Did you install Gazebo another way, or with extra packages?I have definitely used one of those approaches to install Gazebo.
