Error in opening a world with gazebo

When I tried to open my world with gazebo, gazebo src/coverage/coverage/worlds/willow-pr2-5cm.world it said :

Error [parser_urdf.cc:2722] Unable to load file[/home/lempereur/catkin_ws/src/coverage/coverage/worlds/willow-pr2-5cm.world].
Error [parser.cc:278] parse as old deprecated model file failed

I can't understand what is my mistake

If you are using the this version of willow-pr2-5cm.world, that will not work with gazebo. It looks like a stage file, not a gazebo world file. Try this world instead.

So I'm using groovy, which simulator should I use in order to open willow_pr2_5cm.world?

If you follow the instructions to install packages from packages.osrfoundation.org, then you can install ros-groovy-gazebo-ros-pkgs. See the gazebo ros tutorials here
