Hi,

Using AMCL, I think you have to put a guess first in the map using RVIZ. When the robot will move, the localization approximation should be more accurate. See "Localize the TurtleBot" on the turtlebot AMCL tutorial page. Make sure the simulated environment corresponding to your map is started in Gazebo (it looks like Gazebo is not started in your log): http://wiki.ros.org/Robots/TurtleBot#turtlebot.2BAC8-Tutorials.2BAC8-indigo-1.Simulation
