ERROR: the config file '/opt/ros/kinetic/share/urdf_tutorial/urdf.vcg' is a .vcg file, which is the old rviz config format.
       New config files have a .rviz extension and use YAML formatting.  The format changed
       between Fuerte and Groovy.  There is not (yet) an automated conversion program.
[rviz-4] process has died [pid 4788, exit code 1, cmd /opt/ros/kinetic/lib/rviz/rviz -d /opt/ros/kinetic/share/urdf_tutorial/urdf.vcg __name:=rviz __log:=/home/joes/.ros/log/8d277192-0c52-11ec-8a4d-14f6d8d77445/rviz-4.log].

2.解决方法:

使用的rviz版本过老,只需要将/opt/ros/kinetic/share/urdf_tutorial/urdf.vcg中的文件最后一行的.cfg改为.rviz即可解决.
