Emmanuel,
mca 6.11 is not ready for 64 bit, according to 6.12 release notes. You
need 6.12, and that

needs asyn 4.13, which likely will have ripple effects onto other
modules, because asyn is

very widely used in synApps.

sscan 2.6.5 is not ready for 64 bit. You need 2.6.6.

std 2.7 is not ready for 64 bit. You need 2.8.

I don't know about the other modules.

Hello,
I am trying to move some of my iocs to 64bit linux.

So far I have:

* seq, gensub, autosave, ipac, sscan, calc, asyn, stream,busy, std
that compiles but are not fully tested yet:
1/ Has the above software been tested on 64b?
As I continue on with mca, I get

2/ any idea how to solve that? Has mca been tested on 64b?
Next in queue is areaDetector
3/ Should I expect problem with that as well?
Thanks,
