No, this error is because motor R6-9 is not compatible with base 3.15 or 3.16.  PI_GCS2Support.dbd includes the motor record, which it should not do.

You can comment out these 2 lines in PI_GCS2Support.dbd 

include "asyn.dbd"
include "motorRecord.dbd"

Or you can get the master branch from github, https://github.com/epics-modules/motor

I know that the master branch works on base 3.15.5, but I see that are working with base 3.16.1 and I am not sure if that has been tested with motor yet.

Hello again, good morning.
I've just tried that, and then, make outputs the following error:

"(...)

perl -CSD /home/setup/Downloads/base-3.16.1/bin/linux-x86_64/dbdExpand.pl   -I. -I.. -I../O.Common -I../../../dbd -I/home/setup/Downloads/support/asyn4-31/dbd -I/home/setup/Downloads/base-3.16.1/dbd -I../../../dbd -o WithAsyn.dbd base.dbd motorSupport.dbd PI_GCS2Support.dbd

  while reading 'PI_GCS2Support.dbd' to create 'WithAsyn.dbd'

dbdExpand.pl: Exiting due to errors

Can it be because I have another folder with motorR6-8 on the machine?

Thanks again.

Hello Guilherme,

I see from the makedump.txt file you sent that you are only building the
"MotorSrc" and "PIGCS2Src" directories. That is OK, but the <motor>/motorExApp
assumes that all the support directories are built.

You could follow one of two paths. One path would be to restore
motorR6-9/motorApp/Makefile to its' orginial state and rebuild.

The other, minimalist, path would be to comment out (or remove) from motorExApp
everything irrelavent to PIGCS2Src support. That requires;
- In motorR6-9/motorExApp/Makefile, comment out "DIRS += NoAsyn" (there is no
PIGCS2Src support in NoAsyn).
- Replace motorR6-9/motorExApp/WithAsyn/Makefile with the attached copy.
- rebuild

I think that should work.

Ron
