I'm trying to install MoveIt and follow the instructions: https://ros-planning.github.io/moveit...
But when I did catkin config --extend /opt/ros/${ROS_DISTRO} --cmake-args -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release> I receive the error:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/catkin_tools/verbs/catkin_config/cli.py", line 144, in main context = Context.load( File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/catkin_tools/context.py", line 247, in load ctx.load_env() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/catkin_tools/context.py", line 442, in load_env extended_env = get_resultspace_environment(self.extend_path, quiet=False) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/catkin_tools/resultspace.py", line 93, in get_resultspace_environment raise IOError( OSError: Cannot load environment from resultspace "/opt/ros" because it does not appear to be a catkin-generated resultspace (missing .catkin marker file).

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/catkin", line 11, in <module> load_entry_point('catkin-tools==0.5.0', 'console_scripts', 'catkin')() File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/catkin_tools/commands/catkin.py", line 272, in main catkin_main(sysargs) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/catkin_tools/commands/catkin.py", line 267, in catkin_main sys.exit(args.main(args) or 0) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/catkin_tools/verbs/catkin_config/cli.py", line 167, in main print('error: could not configure catkin workspace: %s' % exc.message) AttributeError: 'OSError' object has no attribute 'message'
This error is about python? What's wrong with that? I found this solution: https://github.com/ethz-asl/voxblox-p... but I haven't Anaconda on my notebook.

I tried to change code in file cli.py on line 167. I chanced "message" to "msg". It didn't work.

I have python 3.8.5 on my machine.

Did you source ROS (source /opt/ros/noetic/setup.bash)? The command that failed assumes $ROS_DISTRO is defined. You can check with echo $ROS_DISTRO. In your case, it should return noetic.

Thank you! It helped me.
May be we need to add in tutorial this point about source for begginers.

It's technically in the Environment Setup part of the ROS installation instructions, to which the tutorial refers, but I can see how it would be an easy point to miss. If you have an idea of how to improve the tutorial, I suggest opening an issue (better yet, a pull request) with them.
