Hello tech-talkers,

 

I am trying to install MEDM on CentOS for the first time but I get an error on the process. I have downloaded the tar file corresponding to the version 3.1.11 and unzipped it in the EPICS/extensions/src directory. Then I do make from the extensions directory and get the following error:

Am I missing any step in the installation process? I haven’t find any installation manual so it is possible I am missing something obvious.

 

Thanks,
