Hi,
I've been following this tutorial here: https://docs.clearpathrobotics.com/docs/ros1noetic/robots/indoor_robots/ridgeback/tutorials_ridgeback#simulating-ridgeback.
When I try to run: roslaunch ridgeback_gazebo ridgeback_world.launch
and I keep getting a message that the urdf spawner exits.
[urdf_spawner-11] process has finished cleanly
log file: /home/sinarasi/.ros/log/3b010fac-32f9-11ee-96ed-1df6afe6d206/urdf_spawner-11*.log
The log file mentioned above doesn't appear to help with debugging:

This exiting is problematic since when I launch RViz with roslaunch ridgeback_viz view_robot.launch
and control it with the interactive controller, the ridgeback only moves in RViz and not Gazebo.
Any guidance would be appreciated.
