camera calibration error using image_pipeline

[paul3333]

I am running your package on ubuntu 16.04, ROS Kinetic and been able to build all packages using catkin_make without errors.
I also included the image_pipeline package as you were using it to rectify the drones images.

When running the camera calibration
rosrun camera_calibration cameracalibrator.py --size 8x6 --square 0.108 image:=/ardrone/front/image_raw camera:=/ardrone/front/

I receive the following error:

kinetic@kinetic:~$ rosrun camera_calibration cameracalibrator.py --size 8x6 --square 0.108 image:=/ardrone/front/image_raw camera:=/ardrone/front/
('Waiting for service', '/ardrone/front/set_camera_info', '...')
OK
Exception in thread Thread-4:

Has anyone faced this issue? Any help would be highly appreciated.
