Error generated. /dvs/git/dirty/git-master_linux/multimedia/nvgstreamer/gst-nvarguscamera/gstnvarguscamerasrc.cpp, execute:557 No cameras available

I have plugged in my camera and followed tutorials but I keep receiving the error: “Error generated. /dvs/git/dirty/git-master_linux/multimedia/nvgstreamer/gst-nvarguscamera/gstnvarguscamerasrc.cpp, execute:557 No cameras available”
Any ideas of how to fix this?
I am on a Jetson Nano B01 & I have tried switching the source camera.
I am currently using an inland 5mp camera.

Did you integrate your sensor driver to the system?
Have a check below doc for the customized kernel and sensor programing guide.

Hey, I’m having the same problem but I couldn’t get exactly what to do. Can you explain me, please? Thank you.

@furkan.nargul
What’s your sensor? You need integrate correct driver for using it.

My camera is Arducam IMX219.

I would suggest consult with Arducam to get the driver to integrate it.

I’m using a Raspberry Pi v2.1 IMX219 camera module and I have the same error. Any suggestions?

@TTNprog
Check if the device probe correctly. Maybe your cable didn’t connect correctly
v4l2-ctl --list-devices
dmesg | grep -i imx219

Hello there!

After digging through various answers and solutions it turns out that:

I needed a genuine Raspberry Pi imx219 camera &
used this command:

sudo dpkg -r arducam-nvidia-l4t-kernel

Then my week long issue was resolved. Thank you!
