Running edm screens on RHEL8

["Ivashkevych, Oksana via Tech-talk" <tech-talk at aps.anl.gov>]

Hi,

I need to make a temp solution for screens to work for the time being…. I have read the EDM related threads and 100% agree that we should move towards Phoebus.

 

We had edm and screens running on Deb8, and have to move to rhel8.

I built edm on rhel8 from https://github.com/gnartohl/edm, with Ulrik instructions, thanks!

 

After getting complains on fonts, I copied fonts.list and colors.list from the old deployment on deb8, and some screens worked with some reported errors. Errors are OK in the given situation. However, some screens can’t get opened and complain on insufficient virtual memory, see below. I see the screen open and die in front of my eyes.  As I was running the screen, I’ve been watching memory consumption with htop, and it wasn’t changing.

 

I believe there could be a limit someplace in edm configuration which could be changed theoretically….(?)

 

I was wondering if one could offer any suggestion to fix it, the goal is to run existent screens  in some usable form for the time being. Any perspective on what actually could be the problem would be very appreciated as well,

 

If we go for translating screens there are lots of macros which need to be defined manually, while in edm we  define them in the command line.

 

Thanks!
