I'm following the tutorial on Autonomous Navigation of a known map for Turtlebot here
Rviz Shows up, my map shows up, obstacles show up. Everything looks good basically, but whenever I choose a 2D Nav Goal after choosing a 2D Pose Estimate, the TurtleBot won't move to that point. I don't understand why, but here is the output of
roslaunch turtlebot_navigation amcl_demo.launch map_file:=/tmp/my_map.yaml

Hi, I do not now much about turtlebot navigation, but I'd guess your localization doesn't work. Try using tags without hashes (#), so the right people get to see your question.

Did initialise the robot's pose on the map?

I also have same problem. My turtlebot works correctly with keyboard teleop, but doesn't work with an autonomous navigation I follow ROS web(autonomously navigate in a known map). I doubt that /mobile_base/commands/velocity doesn't respond.
