Hi Stefan,

I just applied for an account for the wiki.
I'll try add a note regarding this change.

Very true. Currently I copied the resources/midas.css into the experiment directory and appended:

#runNumberCell { display: none;}
#runStatusStartTime { display: none;}
#runStatusStopTime { display: none;}
#runStatusSequencer { display: none;}
#logChannel { display: none;}

See screenshot attached. :-)

But if feels a little clunky to copy the whole file just to add five lines.
It might be more elegant if status.html looked for a user css file in addition
to the default ones.

The logging channels are easily removed with the css (see attachment), but it might be
nice if the string "Run Status" table title was also configurable by css. For this
slow control system I'd probably change it to something like "GSC Status". Again
this is a minor thing, I could trivially do this by copying the resources/status.html
to the experiment directory and editing it.

Lots of fun new stuff migrating from circa 2012 midas to midas-2022-05-c :-)

Cheers,

Nick.

Please coordinate with Ben Smith at TRIUMF <bsmith@triumf.ca>, who coordinates the documentation.

I would not go to change the CSS file. You only can hide some tables. But in a while I'm sure you
want to ADD new things, which you only can do by editing the status.html file. You don't have to
change midas/resources/status.html, but can make your own "custom status", name it differently, and
link /Custom/Default in the ODB to it. This way it does not get overwritten if you pull midas.

See above. I agree that the status.html file is a bit complicated and not so easy to understand
as the CSS file, but you can do much more by editing it.

I always advise people to frequently pull, they benefit from the newest features and avoid the
huge amount of work to migrate from a 10 year old version.

Best,
Stefan

I believe the original "hide run start / stop" was added specifically for ND280 GSC MIDAS. I do not know 
why it was removed. "hide pause / resume" is still there. I will restore them. Hiding logger channel 
section should probably be automatic of there is no /logger/channels, I can check if it works and what 
happens if there is more than one logger channel. K.O.

I will tread lightly.

We have *many* custom pages. The submenus on the status page:

&#9656; FGD
&#9656; TPC
&#9656; TRIPt

hide custom pages with all sorts of good stuff.

I may end up doing this since the events and data columns do not provide particularly
useful information in this instance. But for now, the css route seems like a quick and
fairly clean way to remove irrelevant stuff from a prominent place at the top of the page.

The long delay was not my choice. The group responsible for the system departed in 2018, and
and were not replaced by the experiment management. Lack of personnel/expertise resulted in
a "if it's not broken then don't fix it" situation. Eventually, the need to update the PCs/OSs
and the imminent introduction of new sub-detectors resulted people agreeing to the update. 

Cheers,

Nick.

Very likely it was "forgotten" when the status page was converted to a dynamic page by Shouyi Ma. Since he is 
not around any more, it's up to us to adapt status.html if needed.

Actually one thing is the functionality of the /Experiment/Start-Stop button in status.html, but the other is 
the warning we get from mhttpd:

[mhttpd,ERROR] [mhttpd.cxx:1957:init_mhttpd_odb,ERROR] ODB "/Experiment/Start-Stop Buttons" is obsolete, please 
delete it.

This was added by KO on Nov. 29, 2019 (commit 2366eefc). So we have to decide re-enable this feature (and 
remove the warning above), or keep it dropped and work on changes of status.hmtl.

Stefan

Look at the C++ implementation of the MIDAS data file reader, the code is very 
simple to follow.

Depending on how old are your data files, you may run into a problem with 
misaligned 32-bit data banks. Latest MIDAS creates BANK32A events where all 
banks are aligned to 64 bits. old BANK32 format had banks alternating between 
aligned and misaligned. old 16-bit BANK format data hopefully you do not have.

If you successfully make a data format description file for MIDAS, please post 
it here for the next user.

K.O.



[quote="Adrian Fisher"]Hi! I'm working on creating a ksy file to help with 
parsing some data, but I'm having trouble finding some information. Right now, I 
have it set up very rudimentary - it grabs the event header and then uses the 
data bank size to grab the size of the data, but then I'm needing additional 
padding after the data bank to reach the next event.
However, there's some irregularity in the "padding" between data banks that I 
haven't been able to find any documentation for. For some reason, after the data 
banks, there's sections of data of either 168 or 192 bytes, and it's seemingly 
arbitrary which size is used. 
I'm just wondering if anyone has any information about this so that I'd be able 
to make some more progress in parsing the data.
The data I'm working with can be found at https://github.com/det-
lab/dataReaderWriter/blob/master/data/07180808_1735_F0001.mid.gz
And the ksy file that I've created so far is at https://github.com/det-
lab/dataReaderWriter/blob/master/kaitai/ksy/scdms_v1.ksy

There's also a block of data after the odb that runs for 384 bytes that I'm 
unsure the purpose of, if anyone could point me to some information about that.

Thank you![/quote]

First of all thank you for all the assistance provided so far, especially making
changes to the code in CMakeList file previously for our configuration.I am not
sure whether this is an appropriate Elog for this matter but we are getting the
following error when trying to make rootana, roody and analyzer on our 64 bit
DAQ machine.

At the bottom of this Elog entry I have provided information about the specifics
of our DAQ machine

Below are the 2 errors we are encountering:

Your ROOT is strange, missing some standard features. Also installed in a strange place, /usr/include/root.

Did you install ROOT from the EPEL RPM packages? In the last I have seen this ROOT built very strangely, with some standard features disabled for no obvious 
reason.

For this reason, I recommend that you install ROOT from the binary distribution at root.cern.ch or build it from source.

For more debugging, please post the output of:
which root-config
root-config --version
root-config --features
root-config --cflags

For reference, here is my output for a typical CentOS7 machine:
daq16:~$ which root-config
/daq/daqshare/olchansk/root/root_v6.12.04_el74_64/bin/root-config
daq16:~$ root-config --version
6.12/04
daq16:~$ root-config --features
asimage astiff builtin_afterimage builtin_ftgl builtin_gl2ps builtin_glew builtin_llvm builtin_lz4 builtin_unuran cling cxx11 exceptions explicitlink fftw3 gdmlgenvector 
http imt mathmore minuit2 opengl pch pgsql python roofit shared sqlite ssl thread tmva x11 xft xml
daq16:~$ root-config --cflags -pthread -std=c++11 -m64 -I/daq/daqshare/olchansk/root/root_v6.12.04_el74_64/include

The important one is the --features, see that "http" and "xml" are enabled. "spectrum" used to be an optional feature, I do not think it can be disabled these 
days, so your missing "TSpectrum.h" is strange. (But I just think the EPEL ROOT RPMs are built wrong).

K.O.

Hi, we have now done a clean install of Root and after some dynamic linking we have been able to make Rootana and analyzer. However we get an error when we try to run analyzer.

You have a mismatch. Your root-config thinks ROOT is installed in /software/..., but the crash
dump says your ROOT libraries are in /usr/lib64/root (not in /software/...).

You can confirm that you are linking against the correct ROOT by running cmake with VERBOSE=1
and examine the linker command line to see what library link path is specified for ROOT.

You can confirm which ROOT library is actually used when you run the analyzer
by running "ldd ./analyzer". You should see the same library paths as specified
to the linker (/software/.../lib*.so). A mismatch can be caused by the setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH
and by 100 other reasons.

I suggest that you remove the "wrong" ROOT before you continue debugging this.

Actually you don't call cmake with the verbose flag but specify it during the make phase

$ make VERBOSE=1

to see the command lines.

Most likely, they forgot to rerun "cmake" after installing a new ROOT. The joys of a two-step build (cmake; make).

Hi

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this query (if it is not, I would truly appreciate it if someone could point me at the right forum). I'm having a little bit of trouble with the setup of a Midas system.

Now, this is a system that I inherited after the previous guy who was looking after it went to other employment. There was a point at which it was working. And then there was an unrelated issue in the electrical system which, as a side effect, meant that the building lost power for a time, and the entire system had to be rebooted.

No problem, I thought. I'll just reset and restart all of the software...

...and I can't seem to get it to work. I keep getting the error message "mvme_read_value: Could not perform read!: Bad address". So far as I can tell, this seems to be related to the idea that the base address being used to read from the boards is incorrect. The base addresses are hardcoded in the software (not autogenerated) and, aside from the power going down and up again, the hardware hasn't been touched since the system was working.

I imagine that there is something that needs to be set, twiddled, tweaked, or turned on in the driver. The output of 'lsmod | grep vme' is:

vmedriver             117742  0

so presumably the driver is at least *present*, even if I have no idea how to twiddle anything on it.

Could anyone perhaps suggest a way forward? Is there some way to gather the information that I need, perhaps, or some way to twiddle anything twiddle-able on the driver?

this might be the right place, depending.

a rather major problem, but a typical situation.

> There was a point at which it was working.

this is very good. if it worked before, there is good chance it will work again.

this happens often enough. several things are likely to happen:
- unexpected software updates, i.e. new linux kernel was installed but inactive, waiting for a reboot
- hardware failures, i.e. we usually see blown up power supplies. check that all VME crate voltages are okey. (ask me how).
- firmware corruption, i.e. we have seen VME modules lose their firmware after power outage, had to be reloaded by jtag

> I keep getting the error message "mvme_read_value: Could not perform read!: Bad address".

this is a generic error, it does not mean that software suddenly is trying to read from wrong address.

this is not the vme driver we use at TRIUMF, so I am not familiar with it's errors. we use the vme_tsi148 driver and the vme_universe driver. (ask me about them).

> so presumably the driver is at least *present*, even if I have no idea how to twiddle anything on it.

could be the wrong version of the driver or the wrong version of the linux kernel. worth checking log files
to see if kernel and driver version numbers are the same.

> Could anyone perhaps suggest a way forward?

Yes. You will have to tell me much more about your system. You can do this publicly here or privately by email to olchansk@triumf.ca

To start, I need to know your VME setup, what is the crate, what is the VME processor, what OS you run, what VME driver you use, what VME modules you have installed.

It appears that all midas applications are now required to link with the
pthreads library even if they do not use threads. This is caused by a
pthread_create() call from ss_thread_create() in system.c.

Is this the intended behaviour?

K.O.

The change is required to support implementation of pthreads in the Linux
compile of Midas. This was added recently. I believe pthreads is also needed
for ROOT based compiles.
