Hi,

thanks a lot for your grep... I temporary fix my local ROOTANA code with this:

diff --git a/libAnalyzer/TRootanaEventLoop.cxx b/libAnalyzer/TRootanaEventLoop.cxx
index 57111b6..90cf384 100644
--- a/libAnalyzer/TRootanaEventLoop.cxx
+++ b/libAnalyzer/TRootanaEventLoop.cxx
@@ -733,7 +733,7 @@ int TRootanaEventLoop::ProcessMidasOnline(TApplication*app, const char* hostname
    /* fill present run parameters */
 
    fCurrentRunNumber = 0;
-   fODB->RI("/runinfo/Run number", &fCurrentRunNumber);
+   fODB->RI("runinfo/Run number", &fCurrentRunNumber);
 
    //   if ((fODB->odbReadInt("/runinfo/State") == 3))
    //startRun(0,gRunNumber,0);

Regards,
Gennaro
