Hi,

I have an Oracle VirtualBox VM with Ubuntu 16.04 and ROS Kinetic installed, in which I run Gazebo using the following command for a simulation project:

roslaunch turtlebot_gazebo turtlebot_world.launch world_file:=<world file name>

I created an image (in .ova format) of this VM using the export appliance option in VirtualBox and imported it as an AMI in Amazon EC2. I launched a new EC2 instance (t3a.2xlarge) using this AMI and setup Ubuntu desktop for this instance following this tutorial.

After logging in to the EC2 instance using TightVNC, I used the single machine configuration in this tutorial to set environment variables to initialize roscore.

After this when I execute the above Gazebo command I get the following error:

... logging to /home/ubuntu/.ros/log/deb4dc68-daab-11ea-8688-0ae27ab79f70/roslaunch-ip-----------------------------.log
