Not able to simulate my sdf file in ignition gazebo

1

I was trying to simulate a goat in ignition gazebo and got this error:

[Err] [Server.cc:181] Error Code 13 Msg: Directory doesn’t exist[goat.dae]
[GUI] [Err] [PathManager.cc:57] Service call timed out for [/gazebo/resource_paths/get]

I followed the .sdf world tutorial properly and made a file goat.sdf (code below).
Note: I have kept the goat.sdf and goat.dae (mesh) file in my home directory.
