RE: Call to assert failed - EPICS

[Mark Rivers <rivers@cars.uchicago.edu>]

Hi Pedro,

 

I see that you are using a version of EPICS base (3.14.10) that is almost 8 years old.  It is possible you are hitting a bug that has already been fixed.

 

Can you update to the current 3.14.12.5 version?

 

Are you using pyEpics?  If so, are you using the latest version of that?

 

Mark

Mr. Hill,

 

I’m currently working at MRCAT (Section 10) at APS developing a program in python to set up the EPICS motors to the desired positions.

However, I’m getting an error when trying to move one specific motor (bl_angle). Below is the error message I’m getting:

 

A call to “assert (_pTargetMutex == & mutexToVerify)” failed in ../../../include/epicsGuards.h line 84.

EPICS Release EPICS R3.14.10 $R3-14-10$ $2008/10/27 19:39:04$.

Current time Mon Jun 27 2016 14:37:28.098931195.

Please E-mail this message to Jeff Hill johill@lanl.gov or to tech-talk@aps.anl.gov

Calling epicsThreadSuspendSelf()

 

 

Also, this error only occurs with this specific motor, others are working fine.

Do you have any idea what this error message might be?

 

Thank you,

Pedro Mantovani Antunes
