how to control left and right wheel

[jossichrist]

i got error once i ran gazebo :

Exception thrown while initializing controller rightWheel_effort_controller.
Could not find resource 'right_wheel_hinge' in 'hardware_interface::EffortJointInterface'.

so, i couldnt run this cmd:

rostopic pub -1 /mybot/leftWheel_effort_controller/command std_msgs/Float64 "data: 1.5"
rostopic pub -1 /mybot/rightWheel_effort_controller/command std_msgs/Float64 "data: 1.0"

What shoud i do?

Thank you in advance

Dear Josua, Which version of ROS are you using? Your issue could be related to a missing package such as this one: ros- *indigo*-effort-controllers (change ROS distribution accordingly) You can install it using: sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-effort-controllers To be honest this tutorial is quite outdated so I'm not sure it's still working fine for recent ROS versions.
