Closed this issue · 13 comments

Hello,

I'm trying to install photoneo camera in ubuntu 16 and with ROS kinetic. I'm using this package: https://github.com/photoneo/phoxi_camera (master branch).

I also downloaded the PhotoneoPhoXiControlInstaller-1.1.3-ubuntu14.04LTS-64.rar package from http://www.photoneo.com/download/

When I do catkin_make I get the following error:

Any thoughts for what the problem can be? Can it be related to my GCC version?

Thank you.

Hello,

Please try to download - Ubuntu Linux 16.04 LTS (64bit) – gcc5.4 from the same link - and install it again.

Let us know if it is working properly.

Best regards

Try to reinstall PhoXi Controll and if the issues persist provide us with result from cmd/terminal

env

I assume the error is because it does not find the PHOXI_LIB. I'm using the GCC version 5.4.0, so in the install_prerequisities.sh file I had to update it accordingly (not sure if this is related to the error).
Please note that PhoXiControl runs fine if I run it separate from ROS. My problem is when I try to link it with ROS using the package: https://github.com/photoneo/phoxi_camera
When I do catkin_make I get this error at the linkage phase:

Thank you for your provided info about the error.
According to this data, the issue is caused by ROS - undefined reference to ros::NodeHandle etc...
Did u have made any changes within ROS ?

  • solution should be clean re-install of the ROS and than try again

I already did that and also formatted my PC. And ROS is working fine with other packages so I don't think that is the problem.
It should be related with the code of phoxi_camera package (ROS package), that does not find the PHOXI_LIB, according to the error that I posted above. (e.g. I can't find this lib anywhere)

Maybe someone that tried to install this package (https://github.com/photoneo/phoxi_camera) has already experienced the same issue?

Appreciate any help.

Thank you.

What comes to my mind is question if there was made some changes in our ROS package ?

  • our package should work in Environment with conditions you are describeing

The only thing I changed was, as I mentioned above, in the "install_prerequisities.sh" file I changed gcc version 4.9 to 5.4.0, in order to match with the gcc version that I have installed.. apart of that, everything is exactly as I cloned

At this moment we can arrange Team Viewer meeting for tomorrow - 17 01 2018 - at 14:00 CET ,so we can help you with this issue.

If you want this meeting, just send email to lesay@photoneo.com - with subject in message :
Fwd: [photoneo/phoxi_camera] phoxi_camera (#10)

provide credentials for Team Viewer - ID and Password into the email

Thank you, I will send it now.

  1. Make new clean install of OS - Ubuntu 16.04, don't change compilers
  2. Install the ROS in Ubuntu ,guidance - http://wiki.ros.org/kinetic/Installation/Ubuntu
  3. Kinetic Workspace Enviroment configuration - http://wiki.ros.org/ROS/Tutorials/InstallingandConfiguringROSEnvironment
  4. Try to compile some other ROS package first if it is working, something simple C++
  5. If you get linking error's please contact ROS support
  6. If it works and some error appears during compilation of our ROS package, please don't hesitate and contact us

BorisLesay,

Thank you for your assistance at installing the this ROS package.
The problem was related to my gcc and g++ installation. These compiler-drivers were installed in a wrong way, so I fixed this problem with the following lines (did not need to reinstall Ubuntu and ROS):
$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-5 120 --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-5
$ sudo update-alternatives --config gcc
(info source: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7832892/how-to-change-the-default-gcc-compiler-in-ubuntu)

BorisLesay,

I have another question please:

About the ROS services available there is limited information. I want to call the service that publishes the pointcloud. I assumed it was the "/phoxi_camera/start_acquisition" topic, but it does not publish information in the /phoxi_camera/pointcloud topic.

Then I tried to call the service /phoxi_camera/get_frame and it published 1 single pointcloud msg. However, it asks for id arguments # 0,1,...etc which I don't know what is the meaning e.g. $ rosservice call /phoxi_camera/get_frame "in_: 1"

Could you please explain what is meaning of the "in_: " filed? Also, is there any service available in this package that publishes the pointcloud continuously (not only a single msg)?

Thank you,
Duarte

rosservice call /phoxi_camera/get_frame "in_: 1"

Hi there,

Thank you for informing us that issue was caused by changes/wrong installation compilers within OS.
Therefore is the first step mentioned as clean install of OS.

I'm going to check this new question/issue and after feedback from our ROS team I'm going to inform you directly.

Best regards
Photoneo Support Team
