Hello Aniket,
You seem to have gone about it the right way. That error usually means
that either your ROACH isn't connected or the tcpborphserver running
on the ROACH has crashed. Also, check the spelling of your ROACH's
name.
I myself use ROACH1, not ROACH2 (in fact I had to modify casperfpga
slightly to work with ROACH), so if you don't come right, reply to the
group again (you can just do a "reply-all" to my previous mail), and
some of those more experienced in using ROACH2 may be able to help
you.
Regards,
James

Hello Aniket,
casperfpga is the one you want:
https://github.com/ska-sa/casperfpga [1] [2]
It has a few dependencies to build, but it's much nicer than corr.

Dear CASPER colleagues,
Myself Aniket Hendre working as a Project Engineer-C in Giant
Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT), India.
I am using ROACH 2 for my experiments. I have executed some modular
design on ROACH 2 successfully.
Now I am facing problem to communicate with ROACH 2 using Python
environment. I have communicated with ROACH 2 successfully using
telnet.
Like for ROACH 1 Corr package any one knows package for ROACH 2 ?
Please guide me regarding the same.

Dear James,
Thanks for the replay. I have clone the casperfpga and installed on my
machine. First I just want check that my ROACH2 has been connected to
my PC. So from the modular script which is there in casperfpga
directory I have extracted a required part. But still I am getting
error. The statement which I am executing in ipython is as follows.
In [8]: #!/usr/bin/env python
In [9]: from casperfpga import katcp_fpga
In [10]: HOSTCLASS = katcp_fpga.KatcpFpga
In [11]: fpga = HOSTCLASS('roach02082A', 7147)

Can you please send a simple script just to check the connection with
ROACH2.
Thanks and Regards,

Dear James I have checked once again. The roach2 name from /etc/hosts.
The name is correct. I can ping the ROACH2 by using the same name. Even
I had tried by using my ROACH 2 ip address instead of roach2 name. But
it is giving same results.
Thanks and Regards,
Aniket
