Every time I changed midas.h or system header files, I did the re-compile with following procedure:
ipcrm
rm .*.SHM
mcleanup
make clean
make
su
make install

Question here:
How to compile mserver seperately? I think make and make install under midas directory already did the job.

I used latest svn version, so I believe I'm using the latest version 4116.
svn co svn+ssh://svn@savannah.psi.ch/afs/psi.ch/project/meg/svn/midas/trunk midas
svn co svn+ssh://svn@savannah.psi.ch/afs/psi.ch/project/meg/svn/mxml/trunk mxml
I followed your instructions and did the following:
1)
svn co svn+ssh://svn@savannah.psi.ch/afs/psi.ch/project/meg/svn/midas/trunk midas
svn co svn+ssh://svn@savannah.psi.ch/afs/psi.ch/project/meg/svn/mxml/trunk mxml
2)
changed two parameters in midas.h
#define MAX_EVENT_SIZE 0xa00000 //0x400000 /**< maximum event size 4MB->10MB*/
#define BANKLIST_MAX 640 //64 /**< max # of banks in event, I need 356 */
3) make
su
make install
I don't know if I need compile mserver seperately.
4) running only two programs:
odbedit -s 10000000
./frontend
And I still got the same problem as before.
[qzpeng@phy2-dhcp140 simu]$ odbedit -s 10000000
[local:simu:S]/>ls
System
Programs
Experiment
Logger
Runinfo
Alarms
[local:simu:S]/>mkdir Equipment
12:44:12 [WFD Simu,INFO] Program WFD Simu on host phy2-dhcp140 started
[local:simu:S]/>start
Run number [1]:
Are the above parameters correct? ([y]/n/q):
Starting run #1
Run #1 started
[local:simu:R]/>stop
[midas.c:9231:rpc_client_call,ERROR] rpc timeout, routine = "rc_transition", host = "phy2-dhcp140.bu.edu"
Error: Unknown error 504 from client 'WFD Simu' on host phy2-dhcp140.bu.edu
[local:simu:R]/>
And I know that the run stopped after a while on frontend, but after the eroor message showed above. If I tried to stop again in odb after a while, it did stopped.
[local:simu:R]/>stop
Run #1 stopped
By the way, thanks for the quick response. I've been working on this for a couple of weeks and I am a newbie.
I also attached my frontend.cpp code and output of make with warning message but comilation completed. Thanks in advance.
In frontend.cpp I only use simulation and don't need any hardware realted issue or function calls but I jsut leave some of them there. |
