Problem with rossvcclient in Matlab [closed]
I'm trying to learn the Matlab Robotics Toolbox and got to the "Getting Started with Gazebo and a Simulated TurtleBot" tutorial: Getting Started with Gazebo and a Simulated TurtleBot
I'm running Matlab 2015 on Windows 7, with a Ubuntu 12.04 virtual machine with ROS indigo.
I ran the turtlebot simulation in gazebo, and I can connect to the ros master in matlab, and see the list of ros topics in Matlab.
But, when I get to the step where I have to use the command:
gazebo = ExampleHelperGazeboCommunicator();
I get an error saying:
Error using ExampleHelperGazeboCommunicator/initServiceClients (line 346) Failed to create a /gazebo/pause_physics service client.
Error in ExampleHelperGazeboCommunicator (line 71) initServiceClients(obj);
Therefore, there is a problem with creating a client for the service /gazebo/pause_physics
Using the command rosservice list I listed all the services, and found out that the service does exist. But when I tried to use rosservice info, or rosservice type, I got an error saying:
A gazebo/pause_physics service does not exist. To see a list of available services, enter "rosservice list".
Which is weird, as when I enter rosservice list, I can see the service listed.
Using "rosservice url" for the service finds the right url of the virtual machine.
I tried checking the other services, and the same thing happens.
Does anyone know what the problem might be?
Thank you!
