I tried to launch the pepper_bringup.launch but I hed the next error:

 [ERROR] [1508861764.274247278]: Motion: Failed to get robot body names!
    Trace:     ALMotion::getBodyNames
    Could not parse "LArmRArm" as a valid joint name, chain name or "Body"

log file: /home/peppercom/.ros/log/9cba558c-b8cf-11e7-abad-d8cb8a065d13/naoqi_dcm_driver-2*.log

I don't know much the ROS bridge for Pepper, but I can tell that indeed "LArmRArm" is not a valid chain of Pepper.
"LArm" and "RArm", separately, are valid though.
So I guess that some piece of code concatenates those names instead making a list of them.
But I cannot help you more than that...

Hello, I recently had a similar problem.

Appereantly there's an error in the naoqi_dcm_driver-package that can be downloaded via apt.
A simple solition is to locally compile naoqi_dcm_driver with catkin and use that version instead.

Interesting. So it seems like an issue already fixed, but still present in the release. Please report this kind of bugs in the GitHub project, like I did for you here: https://github.com/ros-naoqi/naoqi_dcm_driver/issues/4

Hello,

you could try to compile from source the following packages : pepper_dcm_robot, naoqi_dcm_driver, pepper_virtual.

For example, in your workspace
cd catkin_ws
cd src
git clone https://github.com/ros-naoqi/pepper_dcm_robot
git clone https://github.com/ros-naoqi/naoqi_dcm_driver
git clone https://github.com/ros-naoqi/pepper_virtual
cd ..
catkin_make

I will check the released versions and will try to fix it.

By the way, which ROS version do you have? and which Ubuntu?

Natalia

Also possible that you need to upgrade your packages if you installed them long time ago.
