Hi Mark,

Yes, I think I did.

My /home/yury/EPICS/support/asyn/configure/RELEASE file looks like that:

HOME=/home/yury

SUPPORT=$(HOME)/EPICS/support

-include $(TOP)/../configure/SUPPORT.$(EPICS_HOST_ARCH)

EPICS_BASE=${HOME}/EPICS/epics-base

-include $(TOP)/../configure/EPICS_BASE.$(EPICS_HOST_ARCH)

Hi Yury,

You need to edit asyn/configure/RELEASE to define the path to EPICS_BASE.  This is what mine looks like:

EPICS_BASE=/corvette/usr/local/epics/base-7.0.7

Yours should probably look like this:

EPICS_BASE=/home/yury/EPICS/epics-base

Did you edit that file correctly?

Hi All,

I am using virtual machine running ubuntu-22.04.4-desktop-amd64.

I am a newbie in EPICS, trying to follow this guide:

Installation on Linux / MacOS — EPICS Documentation documentation (epics-controls.org)

But when I am trying to build asyn package I have some errors:

make

make -C ./configure install

make[1]: Entering directory '/home/yury/EPICS/support/asyn/configure'

make -C O.linux-x86_64 -f ../Makefile TOP=../.. \

    T_A=linux-x86_64 install

make[2]: Entering directory '/home/yury/EPICS/support/asyn/configure/O.linux-x86_64'

perl -CSD /home/yury/EPICS/epics-base/bin/linux-x86_64/convertRelease.pl checkRelease

EPICS_BASE must be set in a configure/RELEASE file.

make[2]: *** [/home/yury/EPICS/epics-base/configure/RULES_BUILD:208: checkRelease] Error 2

make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/yury/EPICS/support/asyn/configure/O.linux-x86_64'

make[1]: *** [/home/yury/EPICS/epics-base/configure/RULES_ARCHS:58: install.linux-x86_64] Error 2

make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/yury/EPICS/support/asyn/configure'

make: *** [/home/yury/EPICS/epics-base/configure/RULES_DIRS:85: configure.install] Error 2

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Yury
