|
In some experiments (i.e. DEAP), we see spurious symlinks to midas.log scattered just about everywhere. I
now traced this to an uninitialized variable in cm_msg_log() and it should be fixed now. K.O. |

18 Feb 2014, Konstantin Olchanski, Info, Custom page header implemented

I am not sure what to do with the javascript snippet - I understand it should be somehow connected to /Custom/Header, but if I create the /Custom/Header
string, I cannot put this snippet
into this string using odbedit - if I try to cut&paste it into odbedit, it is truncated to the first line - nor using the mhttpd odb editor - when I cut&paste |

mhttpd.css is served from $MIDASSYS/resources/mhttpd.css. The actual path is reported on the mhttpd

We have tested operation of MIDAS using a 10GigE network connection. Using a dummy frontend
generating fake data, we can record MIDAS data to disk at at least 700 Mbytes/sec as reported by
the MIDAS status page.

14 Oct 2014, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Report, Problem in mfe multithread equipments
|
In the ALPHA experiment at CERN I found a problem in mfe.c handling of multithreaded equipments. This problem was in
some forms introduced around May 2013 and around Aug 2013 (commit
https://bitbucket.org/tmidas/midas/src/45984c35b4f7/src/mfe.c) (I hope I got it right).
