Folks,

 

I am trying to run EPICS 7.0.1.1 on my production IOCs, including vxWorks.

 

I am getting the following errors when loading records for the Allen Bradley driver.  These load fine on base 3.14.12.5 and 3.15.5.  These are the errors:

 

##############################

Can't set "13IDA:eps_bi1.INP" to "#L0 A0 C0 S11 F0 @" Error (512,512)

Error at or before ")" in file "/corvette/home/epics/support/CARS/CARSApp/Db/eps_inputs.db" line 6

Error at or before ")" in file "/corvette/home/epics/support/CARS/CARSApp/Db/eps_inputs.db" line 6

This is the database file being loaded via dbLoadTemplate:

grecord(bi,"$(P)eps_bi$(N)")

        field(DESC,"$(DESC)")

        field(SCAN,"I/O Intr")

        field(ZSV, "$(ZSV)")

        field(ONAM,"$(ONAM)")

        field(OSV,"$(OSV)")

Is there something wrong with the INP line that is tolerated in 3.14 and 3.15 but not in 7.0?
