What namespace does gazebo expects?
HI all,
I installed Ubuntu 14.04 and ros indigo. And gazebo 2.2 also got installed along with it (was not expecting as it is being said that gazebo needs to be installed separately). While running some sample worlds, I found that it waits for certain namesapce. and after few trials gives up. What namespace is it looking for?
The console output is:
$roslaunch gazebo_ros empty_world.launch
....

After this, the world seems to be spawning fine. But, what namespace is it looking for??
I have this problem too. Did you solve it? The answer posted below regarding environment variables did not help for me.
