Which example are you trying to run. It looks like you might not have the environment variable RPN_DEFNS set. You have to download defns.rpn from: http://www.aps.anl.gov/Accelerator_Systems_Division/Operations_Analysis/downloads/defns.rpn and then set the RPN_DEFNS environment variable to point to i...

You need to have C:\Tcl\bin in your path. The installer goes through all the path directories looking for wish85.exe. Once this is found it knows where to install the needed files. Also it copies wish85.exe to wish.exe and oagwish.exe. It also copies tclsh85.exe to tclsh.exe and oagtclsh.exe. The ph...

I think I know what it happening. You are probably using the tclsh that comes with cygwin. This version of tclsh does not seem to pass the RPN_DEFNS variable to child processes. I would suggest you use your cygwin setup.exe to uninstall the tcltk package. Next go and install the ActiveTcl version 8....

I would start with this little test: $ rpn Welcome to rpn version 6, by Michael Borland and Robert Soliday (June 1999) rpn> -4 abs 4.00000000000 rpn> exit I would also try this with a simple DOS command terminal to see if the problem is cygwin specific. This test in cygwin and DOS terminals works fo...

Here is what I would do: sddsprocess test.sdds -pipe=out -filter=column,MAL.DP,0.0,0.0 | sdds2stream -pipe=in -col=betaxFinal This returns 7.431099999999999e-01 Next run: sddsprocess test.sdds test2.sdds "-define=column,betaxFinalNormalized,betaxFinal 7.431099999999999e-01 - 7.431099999999999e-01 /"

Try changing the default printer. sddsplot has to load the printer drivers and it has trouble with some printers.

There is now a new 32bit Linux RPM file for elegant which solves this problem.

I just tried the 32bit version and I see the same problem you see. I will look into it.

There probably will not be a binary release of SDDS 2.8 because the programs were not changed much. Just a few library calls that elegant uses.

sddssortcolumn depends on the rules in epics/extensions/configure, so you would have to do a 'make' there. elegant depends on the rules in oag/apps/configure. It is all a little hocus pocus to me since I don't quite understand how the rules work. I took your files and ran them on RHEL5 with elegant ...

I'm look into fixing this for the next release. As for installing the one you have, the symlink was the correct thing to do. Next when you run rpm you have to add the -nodeps option.
