I have created a workspace as catkin_ws. Then, catkin_make was run successful. After I type catkin_create_pkg ros_basics_tutorials std_msgs rospy roscpp and then the all folders and files created in ros_basics_tutorials folder.

However After this command, I type cd catkin_ws

I couldn't solve? How can solve it?


Solution

  • The error was due to anathor project folder which i canceled under the catkin_ws. I deleted it and complied again. The error solved.
