Hi, it seems like your package hasn’t been built properly or you missed some step after it’s creation. The main procedure for building the package is as follows:

  1. First create the package using catkin_create_pkg package_name package_dependencies e.g catkin_create_package my_package rospy roscpp.
  2. After adding new packages or adding new files(scripts), remember you have to always use roscd, cd …/, and then catkin_make or catkin build in order to compile packages.
  3. You have to also update the source file for which the command is source devel/setup.bash.

Make sure you follow all these steps, then it should work fine. If it doesn’t then please share the screenshot of both error and your code. Thanks

i have created the package by

catkin_create_pkg my_bb8_custom_service_pkg rospy std_msgs

then created the custom service after that when i use catkin_make this is the error im getting

Ok, you are probably making some mistake in editing your CMakeLists.txt and / or package.xml files. Make sure you are following the instructons properly. I will suggest delete the current package and create the new one and follow all steps in editing CMakeLists.txt and / or package.xml files. Remeber even if there is a single mistake in them, you won’t be able to build/compile your package. It happened to me as well.

For me it was like,

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0.2)
project(services_quiz)

Compile as C++11, supported in ROS Kinetic and newer

add_compile_options(-std=c++11)

Find catkin macros and libraries

if COMPONENTS list like find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS xyz)

is used, also find other catkin packages

find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS
rospy
std_msgs
message_generation
)

System dependencies are found with CMake’s conventions

find_package(Boost REQUIRED COMPONENTS system)

Uncomment this if the package has a setup.py. This macro ensures

modules and global scripts declared therein get installed

See http://ros.org/doc/api/catkin/html/user_guide/setup_dot_py.html

################################################

Declare ROS messages, services and actions

################################################

To declare and build messages, services or actions from within this

package, follow these steps:

* Let MSG_DEP_SET be the set of packages whose message types you use in

your messages/services/actions (e.g. std_msgs, actionlib_msgs, …).

* In the file package.xml:

* add a build_depend tag for “message_generation”

* add a build_depend and a exec_depend tag for each package in MSG_DEP_SET

* If MSG_DEP_SET isn’t empty the following dependency has been pulled in

but can be declared for certainty nonetheless:

* add a exec_depend tag for “message_runtime”

* In this file (CMakeLists.txt):

* add “message_generation” and every package in MSG_DEP_SET to

find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS …)

* add “message_runtime” and every package in MSG_DEP_SET to

catkin_package(CATKIN_DEPENDS …)

* uncomment the add_*_files sections below as needed

and list every .msg/.srv/.action file to be processed

* uncomment the generate_messages entry below

* add every package in MSG_DEP_SET to generate_messages(DEPENDENCIES …)

Generate messages in the ‘msg’ folder

add_message_files(

FILES

Message1.msg

Message2.msg

)

Generate services in the ‘srv’ folder

add_service_files(
FILES
BB8CustomServiceMessage.srv

Service1.srv

Service2.srv

)

Generate actions in the ‘action’ folder

add_action_files(

FILES

Action1.action

Action2.action

)

Generate added messages and services with any dependencies listed here

generate_messages(
DEPENDENCIES
std_msgs # Or other packages containing msgs
)

################################################

Declare ROS dynamic reconfigure parameters

################################################

To declare and build dynamic reconfigure parameters within this

package, follow these steps:

* In the file package.xml:

* add a build_depend and a exec_depend tag for “dynamic_reconfigure”

* In this file (CMakeLists.txt):

* add “dynamic_reconfigure” to

find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS …)

* uncomment the “generate_dynamic_reconfigure_options” section below

and list every .cfg file to be processed

Generate dynamic reconfigure parameters in the ‘cfg’ folder

generate_dynamic_reconfigure_options(

cfg/DynReconf1.cfg

cfg/DynReconf2.cfg

)

it is the same for me i just edited for anyone to read

i made an error in catkin_package( CATKIN_DEPENDS rospy message_runtime)
