Just a little correction, In fact, FOXAPI comes in version V.4.2.2 with IA Series version 6.2.1, = also with 6.3 version. But you said that you are running FOX API in V.4.2.2, = with IAS in 6.2.1 ! If you want to update FOX API in V 4.2.5, Lowell Tim has right, you = will need the Quick Fix notified QF1001369. We are running FOX API in V 4.2.5., for more than 3 months, without = problem. (Even with C program). -----Message d'origine----- De=A0: Lowell, Tim: [mailto:tlowell@xxxxxxxx]=20 Envoy=E9=A0: lundi 17 d=E9cembre 2001 16:51 =C0=A0: 'foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Objet=A0: Re: [foxboro] FoxAPi I think Alex answered this. The version that comes with I/A v.6.2.1 is v.4.2.5. If you are not at FoxAPI version 4.2.5, QF1001369 will get = you there. Look at the file go_FOXAPI. It should have a line referring to "/opt/fox/ais/bin/aisstart". This is the program that starts FoxAPI. The only other thing I can think of is the an_init.tcp file. This file = is required in the /opt/fox/ais/bin directory, even if it has nothing in = it except defaults. Do you have that file?

What I don't see is an entry like ADDE6 in /usr/fox/bin/fox_apps.dat , but there is an entry called FOXAPI What's the latest version of FoxAPI ; I am working with 4.2.0. Or should I give another instruction in my C program before calling "an_add_objects"?

It will print out all the FoxAPI-related applications that are currently running. You should have at least the following: /opt/fox/ais/bin/foxapi om_poll /opt/fox/ais/bin/foxapi /opt/fox/ais/bin/foxapi wrtimr /opt/fox/ais/bin/foxapi wrproc /opt/fox/ais/bin/histlnbc You may also have an_server.tcp running a few times, depending on if you have any special applications running. If you don't have these entries, FoxAPI is not really running. You should also check /usr/fox/bin/fox_apps.dat or /etc/fox/user_apps.dat to make sure FoxAPI starts on reboot. There should be an entry in one of those files that refers somewhere to aisstart, such as go_ADDE6.

However when I start my programs , it tells me "FoxAPI is not running-Please restart application after FoxAPI is started !" When I check with a ps command , FoxAPI is running ! We are using FoxAPI ver 4.2.0 (I/A series ver 6.2.1) Jef Desaever Protein Technologies Int Zwaanhofweg 1 8900 Ieper- Belgium =09 ___________________________________________________________________ This list is neither sponsored nor endorsed by The Foxboro Company.
