You need to add the path to the location of caRepeater executable to your PATH environment variable.  It is something like epics/base-3.14.12.1/bin/linux-x86.

Subject: CA Repeater Problem with new installation of EPICS

Hello

I am new to EPICS. I have built the EPICS base R-3.14.12.1 successfully for Scientific Linux 5.

While I created the first application (as advised in Application Developer's Guide) and it looks running without problem.

However when I build the caClient example and tried to run caExample I observe the following messages:

./caExample rootHost:ai3

**** The executable "caRepeater" couldn't be located

**** because of errno = "No such file or directory".

**** You may need to modify your PATH environment variable.

**** Unable to start "CA Repeater" process.

rootHost:ai3 3.000000

Also when I start edm for an application here, I notice the same message. 

Can anyone help me to find what may be the possible fault in my EPICS installation.

With Regards
