Navigation: Polygon lies outside map bounds, so we can't fill it

Hi! I am trying to use the navigation stack combined with ccny_rgbd (using a Kinect). My robot's footprint is shown correctly and it moves when I move my kinect. The problem is that when I try to display the obstacles in a grid cell, nothing happens. I get the following message. I am not using a static map. Any suggestions? help?

At the beggining

The global costmap size is set based on the static map size, so it would seem your problem lies in the fact that your static map is 0 x 200. This means your costmap has an infinitely small bounds, thus the polygon is outside it.

Edit: The intial errors you listed are coming from AMCL. You can't do AMCL without a static map.

I noticed that 0 x 200. But Im not using a static map (static_map: false).How can I change the dimensions of the map without using a static map? I dont need AMCL since i already have localization, but I wanted to use navigation and the avoidance of objetcs. I'll delete amcl from the launch file
