Hello,
I installed a working TB3 + Gazebo + Nav2 stack 1 month ago from apt repositories. I am now installing new setups on other computers and the Nav2 stack seems broken.
The /map topic is not being published by the map_server. That node apparently fails to configure. Here is a selection of the relevant log output:
~$ ros2 launch turtlebot3_navigation2 navigation2.launch.py map:=$HOME/map.yaml
[...]

Here is the map_server source code for the configure step. Something seem to fail between these lines.
How to reproduce the bug: Install a fresh VM or PC with ROS 2 Humble and run:
sudo apt install ros-humble-turtlebot3-navigation2 ros-humble-turtlebot3-simulations ros-humble-turtlebot3-teleop ros-humble-turtlebot3-cartographerros2 launch turtlebot3_gazebo turtlebot3_house.launch.py- save a map file if you don’t have one for the TB3 house
ros2 launch turtlebot3_navigation2 navigation2.launch.py map:=$HOME/map.yaml- You will see RViz2 not being able to display the map because
/maptopic is not published bymap_server
It’s hard to tell if versions of apt packages are the same in both (working/non-working) computers because many packages are involved in the stack. But the TB3 integration to Nav2 is the same version:
~$ apt-cache madison ros-humble-turtlebot3-navigation2
