Cobotta_pro_900 robot arm python script control error

When I follow Adding a New Manipulator — Omniverse IsaacSim latest documentation adding a New Manipulator.The cobotta_pro_900.usd file is generated, and the joint control is fine. However, when performing Gains Tuning, Choose the prim_path that corresponds to the articulation under Select Articulation, value is /cobotta_pro_900/root_joint. When using Python script control later, the following error occurs:

How can I solve it?

I have the same problem with you. Are you solving it now?

I met the same problem and I found it was caused by the converted usd file.

There is a similar example in ~/.local/share/ov/pkg/isaac-sim-4.0.0/standalone_examples/api/omni.isaac.manipulators/, where it loads the cobotta_pro_900 usd file with from omni.isaac.nucleus import get_assets_root_path. I compared the nucleus usd file and the one converted from the urdf, the articulation_root of the former is root_join, which is different from the robot’s root prim of the latter. After replacing the usd file with the nucleus one, the progress works normally.
