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.

sddssortcolumn.c is not new but it is not used a lot either. I just tested building it on RHEL5 64bit and it worked. rose> uname -a Linux rose.aps.anl.gov 2.6.18-164.el5 #1 SMP Tue Aug 18 15:51:48 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux rose> make make -C O.linux-x86_64 -f ../Makefile TOP=../../../....

Well this is what I see when I open your script in xemacs: sddsAnalyzeBeam $1 $1.tmp^M ^M sddsprocess $1.tmp -noWarnings \^M "-define=col,E0,pAverage 510.99906e-6 *,units=GeV" \^M "-define=col,Ss,St 2.99792458E11 *,units=mm" \^M "-convertUnits=col,en?,um,m,1e6" \^M "-convertUnits=col,Sdelta,%, ,1e2"...

Can you send me an example script that doesn't work. I'll try it on my Windows computer to see what the problem is. Also send me the error message you get.

Here is my output from "otool -L elegant" elegant: /usr/lib/libz.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.2.3) /sw/lib/libreadline.5.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0, current version 5.0.0) /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 111.1.4) /usr/lib/li...

I think you downloaded the wrong version of elegant. Does your computer have an Intel CPU or an older PPC cpu? We offer elegant for both: darwin-x86_elegant.tar.gz is for Intel CPU darwin-ppc_elegnat.tar.gz is for PPC CPU I just tried running the PPC version on an Intel machine and got the same erro...
