Galactic - MoveIt Planning Library doesn't load
Running ROS2 Galactic and tried installing UR ROS2 drivers for Galactic from binary and source and get the same results.
Per the documentation, I run this command in one terminal without issue:
ros2 launch ur_bringup ur_control.launch.py ur_type:=ur5e robot_ip:=yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy use_fake_hardware:=true launch_rviz:=false initial_joint_controller:=joint_trajectory_controller
Then I run this command in another terminal to bring up Rviz and MoveIt:
ros2 launch ur_moveit_config ur_moveit.launch.py ur_type:=ur5e launch_rviz:=true
Rviz opens up with a UR5e, but motion planning library refuses to load.

Here is the terminal output from the ur_moveit.launch.py command:
cobot@cobot-Precision-7560:~$ ros2 launch ur_moveit_config ur_moveit.launch.py ur_type:=ur5e launch_rviz:=true

This seems to be a dependency problem. We have recently updated the package's dependencies and have not made a binary release since.
Since you already tried a source install: Did you call the rosdep install command after cloning / updating to the latest galactic commit?
Could you please post the output of apt search ros-galactic-moveit? This should print the state of all moveit packages whether they are installed or not. If there's a package missing, we should find it there.
I have the same error with the galactic branch. I built from source and called rosdep install . Here is the output of apt search ros-galactic-moveit:

@renzobazan96 do you also have a dying move_group node or do you only have the missing planning library in RViz?
@fmauch Same error here, I checked node list and rqt_graph but cannot find anything similar to move_group node.
I can see my robot when launch
ros2 launch ur_bringup ur_control.launch.py ur_type:=ur3 robot_ip:=yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy launch_rviz:=true initial_joint_controller:=joint_trajectory_controller same pose as real robot.
but when launch moveit it shows No planning library loaded message and MotionPlanning status ⚠️ also planningScene message is Requesting inition scene failed. When I click Plan&Execute button it says MoveGroup action client/server not ready
I'm using Ros2 Galactic and semi-binary installed UR driver for UR3 I can motion planning on foxy version but I'm trying to use servo command so I updated to galactic version.
Answer myself,
sudo apt install ros-galactic-backward-ros or sudo apt install ros-<ROS DISTRO>-backward-ros
Can solve this problem.
Answer myself,
sudo apt install ros-galactic-backward-rosorsudo apt install ros-<ROS DISTRO>-backward-rosCan solve this problem.
As far as I can follow the package trace on my testing machine that should be installed with the current version, as the dependency goes like this: ur_moveit_config->moveit_simple_controller_manager->moveit_common->backward_ros. So this should be addressed since #392.
I had the same problem, I wrote a workaround in the moveit launch file which lets the rviz launch wait for the move_group being finished (it prints the message "You can start planning now"). It's a bit hacky but it does the job.
this is in my def launch_setup(context, *args, **kwargs):
from launch.actions import RegisterEventHandler
from launch.event_handlers import OnProcessIO
from launch.event import Event
# define your nodes here
rviz_node = ...
move_group_node = ...
mongodb_server_node = ...
servo_node = ...
move_group_loaded_message = "You can start planning now"
def on_output(event: Event):
for line in event.text.decode().splitlines():
# print('[{}] {}'.format(
# cast(ProcessIO, event).process_name, line))
if move_group_loaded_message in line:
return [rviz_node, move_group_interface_server]
delay_rviz = RegisterEventHandler(OnProcessIO(
on_stdout=on_output,
on_stderr=on_output,
))
nodes_to_start = [
move_group_node,
delay_rviz, # starts rviz once move group is ready
mongodb_server_node,
servo_node,
]

@niemsoen really, that's the problem? Thanks for sharing this workaround! But I agree that it's a bit hacky and string matching from output is always a bit brittle (Although this output stayed the same as long as I can remember).
