Failed to create local planner.

Hi, I have created my own customized local planner. When I compile it, there were no errors. But when I try to run my robot using the local planner, it showed the following error image description

I have checked move_base.xml file, there is no error. I cross-checked using the command

rospack plugins −−attrib=plugin nav_core

This shows that nav_core exported the new created shifty_local_planner. But when I roslaunch it, it throws this error. Could you tell me exactly where is the problem?

Thank You.

The solution is right in the error message:

"[...] the class shifty_local_planner/ShiftyPlannerROS [...] does not exist."

"Declared types are ShiftyPlannerROS ..."

So it's looking for shifty_local_planner/ShiftyPlannerROS, but all it could find was ShiftyPlannerROS (without the namespace).

As Martin has pointed out the problem is displayed in the error message. The fix would be to edit your blp_plugin.xml file properly. It should contain the following:

<library path="lib/libshifty_local_planner">
  <class name="shifty_local_planner/ShiftyPlannerROS" type="shifty_local_planner::ShiftyPlannerROS" base_class_type="nav_core::BaseLocalPlanner">
    <description>
      A implementation of a ShiftyPlannerROS local planner.
    </description>
  </class>
</library>

You should use the shifty_local_planner as a namespace and ShiftyPlannerROS as the name of the class in your source files.

Also, do a clean build afterwards.
