Arm simulation not showing in gazebo

I’ve been following the instrucions on the LSS-ROS2-Arms Package, in the iron brach. I can use the arm simulation on RViz, but it doesn’t appear on gazebo. My setup is:

Linux distro: Pop_os 22.04 LTS
ROS distro: Iron
Python version: 3.10

I’ve repeated the instructions on the repository, but the same error still appears. Does someone know what might be happening?

@luricl Welcome to the RobotShop Community. Apologies for the late reply. We didn’t test the package for Iron. That branch was created because someone else in the forum wanted to use that version, but it was not completed nor tested. Can you try with Galactic?

No worries!

Actually, I have discovered that the problem was that I needed to generate the sdf files before building the project.

I also have created a humble version of the lss arm, because it’s the distribution used by the research group that I am working with.

Now, I can see the robot in gazebo, but I still haven’t been able to use it properly, because the simulation doesn’t execute the planned actions.

I will create a new topic to discuss this.
