C++ MoveIt Demo for Sawyer

Some issues with moveit and sawyer. When i use the rviz gui, I can plan and get it to execute anything, it always shows failed. I have followed the tutorial here. I am attaching screen shots. 

In my terminal where I have launched the sawyer_moveit.launch I get these errors, where the motion libraries fail to make any plans. I don't see any reason for failure. However, if I move the robot manually and then update in my moveit rviz plugin it is able to get the new current state, which means it can communicate properly and also getting the right model.

Some more issues. I tried getting the sawyer joint values using moveit using the sawyer model.

I am using planning_context.launch and kinematics.yaml

i am thrown this error, it seems it can't find one joint:

I have the same issue. The robot seems to be in constant self-collision. If you look at the collision space surrounding the screen, the spherical collision space around the screen appears to be permanently crossed with the insertion joint of the arm to the main body/mount. 

I'll be messing with Sawyer's SRDF / configuration to see if I can remedy the situation but this is unfortunate that the tutorials are broken out of the box :(
