Hi all!

I have problem like this -

user@PC:~/ros$ rosrun gscam gscam
[rosrun] Couldn't find executable named gscam below /home/user/ros/gscam
[rosrun] Found the following, but they're either not files,
[rosrun] or not executable:
[rosrun]   /home/user/ros/gscam
[rosrun]   /home/user/ros/gscam/include/gscam

Does anyone explain what I'm doing wrong?

Hi there!

assuming your workspace have been build successfully, inclusive the add_executable(...) / target_link_libraries(..) and add_dependencies in your CMakeList.txt ( although named gscam).

Are you sure that "gscam" (the first own) is your package, the second is your executable and your devel/setup.bash is sourced?

The gscam package was downloaded from https://github.com/ros-drivers/gscam , and i added package in my home directory in ros folder. Before i used ros tools in this directory, i typed into the terminal this: export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=~/ros:$ROS_PACKAGE_PATH. And then: source /opt/ros/kinetic/setup.bash

Yea, gscam/devel/setup.bash is sourced

I am not very firm with ROS_PACKAGE_PATH, but should it be: export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=${ROS_PACKAGE_PATH}:/home/my_pc/ros/gscam -> ${ROS_PACKAGE_PATH} to append the new path
