I was hoping for something like libgazebo to be working though but let me try.

Thanks. I will try to do it and post and problems that I find here.

Thanks Nate. Is there any other way to do it through C++ code.

Ok i have added some detail but I will try to add more details.

Hi all,

I understand that most of you are using ROS but I am trying to do some simple joint manipulations using Player. I have been trying to work with the available examples but at the moment I am having a lot of errors. By any chance any one has a working example for Player code with Gazebo. I am trying to compile the simple.c program. I think the main problem is libgazebo.a and gazebo.h are not getting installed on the system. I will try to upload the exact errors. Thanks.

Thanks. I am also facing the problem that I get errors when I try to compile any player program. None of the functions are recognized.

I have tried building the installation from tar ball instead of using the Ubuntu binaries and it seems to be working now. At least player is now recognizing the installation.

Hi All,

I am trying to make Gazebo work with player and was going trying to go through the examples but every time I try open player I get the following error. Player has been working fine for me with stage so far. I am only having problems with Gazebo.

error : Failed to load plugin libgazeboplayer. error : libtool reports error: file not found error : plugin search path: /home/fahad/Spider:.:/usr/local/lib64/ error : failed to load plugin: libgazeboplayer error : failed to parse config file camera.cfg driver blocks

Gazebo does detect that player is installed. Any one else has encountered the same problem?

Thanks. After this semester is over I will like and try to do a small how to manual to model such small things. If you can point me to where I can get data on the different shapes and joints that would be great because I spent a lot of time on it and hope no body else has to.

Thanks this will help. The problem was that I need to place joints and I need to find out the exact position of the joints.

I have asked this question because I need to connect different objects through joints. So when I try to place two objects close together, they don't align so I just wanted to know from which point of the object we measure its pose. The center of gravity of the object using simple objects like boxes.

Hi all, I have a very basic question. When creating objects where is the measuring point on the object use I am not sure from where the pose is measured from the object. Second problem is with joints. I just need to ask if someone can help me with where to measure from for objects and joints.

Thanks, that fixed it.

Hi all,

I am facing a problem with Gazebo. When I install it on my machine running Ubuntu Linux 12.04, it works fine but when I restart the computer and try to run it, it gives me the following error.

gazebo: error while loading shared libraries: libOgreRTShaderSystem.so.1.7.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Has any body else faced the same problem? What might be the possible solution?
