I had a look and don't think we have any 64-bit specific changes. Aside from a few build fixes (mostly missing headers) all changes are to the management scripts.

However, we build against possibly different versions of the library dependences. With the exception of xmlrpc-c we use the versions from the official debian Squeeze (6.0) repository. A newer version of xmlrpc-c is needed to get proper support for tiny floating point values (eg. vacuum pressures).

Versions of the relevant dependencies which we use:

xerces-c  2.8.0+deb1-2+b1
xmlrpc-c  1.16.33-3~bpo60+2

James,

The Debian packages by Michael Davidsaver are available for 32 and 64
bit Intel architectures.
Naturally, the source packages, that these binary packages are compiled
from, do compile on 32 and 64 bit.
Both are available from the BNL repository at
http://epics.nsls2.bnl.gov/debian/

James,

I built the archiver for a 64bit cpu and had to make quite a few changes.

For XML support, I have only updated the Xerces code so if you are
using something else you may have other issues.

I have attached an archive of all files (only in the message sent
specifically to James).

Best,
John Sinclair

For the moment, I'm just trying to find out why there is an undefined
symbol in the library libxmlrcp_cgi.so.3 when I try to run
ArchiveDataServer.cgi.  The complete error message is:

     I believe there are sites who updated the sources to compile on 64
     bit.
     In 2010, the channel archiver sources have been moved from an SNS
     repository to source forge so that other sites can easily
     contribute such updates.
     If you have been working on 64 bit updates and need write access
     to the SF repo, please let me know.
     Or if  you prefer to publish your updates by other means, please
     contact Andrew so he can list that on the EPICS extensions web site.

     Thanks,
     Kay

     I should add that the ldd command indicates that I have the right
     library file from the old computer.

     bit, so it was compiled on 32 bit linux and transfered.  For the
     most part, it is working, save for ArchiveDataServer.cgi

     I've transferred the libraries that are needed by
     ArchiveDataServer.cgi, but I'm getting an error with one of them.
      Any help with getting past this would be most welcome.

     The error:

     Hello everyone
     Ok, I found out what the problem was.  ArchiveDataServer.cgi is
     failing to find some library files that it needs.  This is
     probably because this is a new computer and things aren't
     completely set up the way they were on the old machine running the
     archiver.  I'm in the process of tracking down the libraries it is
     complaining about and making links to them in /usr/lib and
     /usr/local/lib which seems to be working.

     Thanks for all the help!  I'll ask if I have further questions

     Correct, that's what this means:
     >"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Couldn't execute the
     archiver.info
     <http://archiver.info><http://archiver.info><http://archiver.info>
     request java.io.IOException: Unexpected Response from Server:
      Internal Server Error"

     The old archive manual,
     https://ics-web.sns.ornl.gov/kasemir/archiver/manual.pdf, has
     sections about the setup and testing of the ArchiveDataServer.cgi
     (4.3.1, 4.3.3, ..).
     You can try to connect to the ArchiveDataServer.cgi via "telnet"
     to see if the web server is executing it at all.
     If it's running, it will also update a file /tmp/archserver.log
     (something like that, don't remember the exact name in /tmp) with
     the recent requests. If the archiver.info
     <http://archiver.info><http://archiver.info>  request already
     fails, that should indicate that the ArchiveDataServer.cgi is
     really not invoked at all. Your web server might return the binary
     bits of the ArchiveDataServer.cgi file instead of executing it.
