Hello @wesnjazz ,

This error is happening because you are trying to compile the catkin_ws, which has been built with ROS1. You need to place the files and compile the ros2_ws instead, which is the workspace for ROS2. I’ve noticed there are some wrong indications about this in the notebook, which I’ve already modified.

Best,
