I'm trying to load a simple SDF in Gazebo and I'm getting an error.

The SDF is copied straight from a tutorial. The code is:

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<sdf version='1.3'>
  <model name="my_robot">
     <static>true</static>
       <link name='chassis'>
        <pose>0 0 .1 0 0 0</pose>

        <collision name='collision'>
          <geometry>
            <box>
              <size>.4 .2 .1</size>
            </box>
          </geometry>
        </collision>

        <visual name='visual'>
          <geometry>
            <box>
              <size>.4 .2 .1</size>
            </box>
          </geometry>
        </visual>
      </link>
  </model>
</sdf>

I've tried two ways to launch it. First:

rosrun gazebo spawn_model -gazebo -file model.sdf -model ball

In the window I ran the above command in:

loading model xml from file
[INFO] [WallTime: 1358300336.220791] [650.630000] waiting for service /gazebo/spawn_gazebo_model
Service call failed: transport error completing service call: unable to receive data from sender, check sender's logs for details

In the terminal I launched emptyworld in:

[ERROR] [1358300336.248267505, 651.564000000]: GazeboRosApiPlugin SpawnModel Failure: input model_xml not Gazebo XML, or cannot be converted to Gazebo XML

The second way I've tried is loading using file -> open in the GUI. This gives, in the terminal:

Warning [parser.cc:348] Gazebo SDF has no gazebo element
Error [parser.cc:263] parse as old deprecated model file failed.

Someone else posted about this error here. It was said to be fixed in the bug report, but I don't think it was. was.

Is there a fix for this? Is there a better way to spawn an SDF?
