Hello, I want to create a gateway between our control command software ElliOOs and Tango. I used the example « How to add dynamic attributes to a device class » to create a generic device that can manage all datatypes that i need to export. All variables that need to be exported are written in a database (ASCII file), then a Tango Device Server is started using this ASCII file. I have written a tiny Tango client to check that my devices and dynamic attributes are available and that is the case. Now I would like to use a standard Tango Client and I am trying to use atkpanel. The first window requires the « device name ». I did not find any manual on how to use atkpanel, so I tried several inputs : - ElliOOs/Gateway/Device2 - marc:10001/ElliOOs/Gateway/Device2 - marc:10001/ElliOOs/Gateway/Device2#dbase=no - But the same exception always occured : Description : connection to database failed So my first question, is it possible to use atkpanel without sql database ? And a more generic question : are there limitations to use Tango without the sql database ? Thank you for your answers For information : i use Tango 9.2.2 on OpenSUSE Leap 42.1 x86_64. |

Hi Marc, Can you try with: Please ensure you have started your device server on your host named marc with the following option: You can get more information on how to run a server without Database and about the limitations on the Tango documentation. Hoping this helps, Reynald

I added the prefix "tango://" and it now works as expected. Thank you. |
