Hi!

I was able to compile ChannelArchiver with latest epics base (3.14.12.1)

after some minor tweaking. I am trying to follow documentation closely.

I created directory tree under /arch and put xml files there. The tree

was actually built by update_archive_tree.pl script.

When I try to run ArchiveEngine command I have the following error in

the log file:

09/26/2011 10:14:49 Starting Engine with configuration file

x12-b-group.xml, index 2011/09_21/index

09/26/2011 10:14:49 Creating ChannelAccess Context.
09/26/2011 10:14:49 Removing memory for channels and groups.
09/26/2011 10:14:49 Stopping ChannelAccess.
09/26/2011 10:14:49 Engine main routine:
../EngineConfig.cpp (59): 'x12-b-group.xml': Error in write_period

write_period is the first element in xml file, if I change order of

elements in the file, the error would be in the other one (first again!)

It seems that xml parsing is not going correctly and it is triggering

exception. engineconfig.dtd file is copied from the examples directory

and is being read by the program - any attempts to fiddle with it cause

obvious errors.

Any ideas on what is going on here would be much appreciated.

Thanks.
Leon
