Does Kinova jaco-ros work in Gazebo? How do I start it?

edit

Hello I am new to ROS and trying to get the Kinova jaco arm working in Gazebo to test gripping algorithms, the launch files included with the code obtained from https://github.com/Kinovarobotics/kin... do not launch gazebo so I am assuming they are all for the real robot. I compiled the code with catkin_make then tried loading an empty world in Gazebo and spawning the arm in like so:

rosrun gazebo_ros spawn_model -file src/jaco-ros/jaco_model/urdf/jaco_arm.xacro -model jaco_common -urdf

but it says Service call failed: service [/gazebo/spawn_urdf_model] responded with an error:
(And it is blank after the error: part)

Is it possible to load this into gazebo? If so please tell me how thank you

(If not, feel free to suggest any other hand models with >4 DOF that work in Gazebo & Jade!)
