Can anyone assist me with getting the realport drivers built on a RHEL 7.3 , I tried both stock drivers and also the BETA release, that was mentioned in another post ( ftp://ftp1.digi.com/support/beta/linux/dgrp/40002086\_X2P.src.rpm)

I am stuck at the same error of TTY\_CLOSING during make on both sets.

I can report the following:

On a fresh install, RHEL 7.3 kernel version 3.10.0-123.el7 it compiles fine. Once updated to kernel 3.10.0-514.2.2.el7, it breaks.

I was running into the exact same issue. Email [Tech.Support@digi.com](mailto:Tech.Support@digi.com) and tell them that you need the dgrp-1.9-37 version of the driver. also, you will probably need to yum psmisc-22.20-11.el7.x86\_64 before the driver will install because my server did not have the command fuser on it, and the digi install would fail on that.

I am still trying to get my unit operational now that the software is installed, but will happily share any other info i may discover should you request it. Thank you.

I can confirm that the 1-9.37 version of the driver does install on the 3.10.0-514.2.2.el7 kernel.

It would appear so, as they still have not posted them to the website as of yet. Thank you.

Just patch the constant in like I did for the Arch Linux package.

echo “#define TTY\_CLOSING (7)” \>\> ‘driver/build/include/dgrp\_net\_ops.h’

It’s not a permanent solution since whatever this constant did probably doesn’t work any more. I’m glad to hear that the next version is begin worked on.

Look at the PKGBUILD on the Arch Linux AUR for any more information.

Just ran into myself,

RHEL Access says contact vendor  
[https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2838211](https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2838211)  
Check out the digi RealPort version dgrp-1.9-37.src.rpm\_y1p by contacting the vendor.

I have opened a case with Digi

How do I go about getting that file? Digi support can’t seem to find it today. Could you dropbox it to us or something? Pretty please!?! I tried searching their FTP server with Filezilla find, but no luck.
