Hi @mat-h. Let me try to replicate the issue on my side.

@mat-h Thanks for bringing this issue up. I can replicate this on my side.

Let me move this to Isaac ROS developer forum since this is not related to Isaac Sim.

To resolve the “waiting for service” error, you would need to install the following package. For Isaac ROS 4.0, <rosdistro> is jazzy.

sudo apt-get install ros-<rosdistro>-nav2-route

I referred to the answer here https://robotics.stackexchange.com/questions/117609/nav2-stuck-at-waiting-for-route-server-get-state-and-message-filter-dropping-me

Let me reach out to the internal team about setting goal issue.

Hello,

Thank you for your prompt feedback.
I really appreciate your help.

It seems improved below issue by installing “ros-jazzy-nav2-route”

• “Waiting for service …” messages are displayed forever

But Carter in IsaacSim has not moved after setting goal yet like attached mp4.

I would appreciate if you check the behavior & tell us how to solve this problem.

Best regards

Hi @mat-h

Please check out this public MR FIX: NVBlox-example/ add minimal (additional) required parameters for nav2 by YuuchanShimi · Pull Request #158 · NVIDIA-ISAAC-ROS/isaac_ros_nvblox · GitHub.

With that change, please install from source following the tutorial: isaac_ros_nvblox — Isaac ROS

We verified that this change would resolve the issue that the robot is not moving after setting goal.
