I am running ROS jade on an Ubuntu 14.04 OS and I am trying to connect the Gazebo simulator to ROS. I have followed the tutorials to connect Gazebo to ROS on the Gazebo website, and now I am trying to download the URDF of the Pioneer 3dx robot (since that is the robot I am using), but I am running into a problem. I have placed the URDF file from a github site into the src directory of my catkin_ws, but whenever I run "catkin_make" I always get this error:
CMake Error at /opt/ros/jade/share/catkin/cmake/catkinConfig.cmake:75 (find_package): Could not find a package configuration file provided by "controller_manager" with any of the following names:
controller_managerConfig.cmake
controller_manager-config.cmake
Add the installation prefix of "controller_manager" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "controller_manager_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "controller_manager" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed. Call Stack (most recent call first): ua_ros_p3dx/p3dx_control/CMakeLists.txt:7 (find_package)
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! See also "/home/tatum/catkin_ws/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log". See also "/home/tatum/catkin_ws/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log". Invoking "cmake" failed
I have looked online to find an answer to this problem but the answers posted do not help me. I think this has to do with the fact that the the other questions were based on the indigo distribution. Please help!!
