Description

Got the wrong trajectory from moveit::planning_interface::MoveGroupInterface::computeCartesianPath

Your environment

• ROS Distro: [Humble]
• OS Version: Ubuntu 22.04
• Source build - master

Steps to reproduce

I used the moveit2-master branch because I wanted to use moveit2's Python-API, Similarly, my moveit2_tutorials also used the master branch of my repo (but changed all rolling branch related branches of the moveit2_tutorials.repo to humble).

repositories:
  moveit_task_constructor:
    type: git
    url: https://github.com/moveit/moveit_task_constructor.git
    version: ros2
  moveit_visual_tools:
    type: git
    url: https://github.com/moveit/moveit_visual_tools
    version: ros2
  # Remove ros2_kortex when rolling binaries are available.
  # Need to use this fork since ros2_kortex depends on Gazebo classic packages:
  # https://github.com/Kinovarobotics/ros2_kortex/issues/217
  ros2_kortex:
    type: git
    url: https://github.com/sea-bass/ros2_kortex.git
    version: remove-gazebo-classic
  # Remove ros2_robotiq_gripper when rolling binaries are available.
  ros2_robotiq_gripper:
    type: git
    url: https://github.com/PickNikRobotics/ros2_robotiq_gripper.git
    version: humble
  # Serial is a dependency of ros2_robotiq_gripper. Remove when ros2_robotiq_gripper binaries are available.
  serial:
    type: git
    url: https://github.com/tylerjw/serial.git
    version: ros2
  rviz_visual_tools:
    type: git
    url: https://github.com/PickNikRobotics/rviz_visual_tools.git
    version: ros2
  moveit2:
    type: git
    url: https://github.com/moveit/moveit2
    version: main
  moveit_resources:
    type: git
    url: https://github.com/moveit/moveit_resources
    version: ros2
  moveit_msgs:
    type: git
    url: https://github.com/moveit/moveit_msgs
    version: ros2
  pick_ik:
    type: git
    url: https://github.com/PickNikRobotics/pick_ik
    version: main
  # Doesn't seem to be available from binaries yet
  gz_ros2_control:
    type: git
    url: https://github.com/ros-controls/gz_ros2_control.git
    version: humble

I firstly called move_group.launch.py to reveal the rviz interface and display the panda arm.

ros2 launch moveit2_tutorials move_group.launch.py
ros2 launch moveit2_tutorials move_group_interface_tutorial.launch.py

Then I call move_group_interface_tutorial.launch.py, found move_group.computeCartesianPath function calculated trajectory always return to the starting point instead of running continuously along the waypoints.

Expected behaviour

the trajectory after computeCartesianPath should running continuously along the waypoints.

Have you tried again since moveit/moveit2#3020 was merged into moveit2? Looks related to the issue that PR fixed.
