Thank you for all the help. Adding "127.0.0.1 localhost" to the host file worked. Afterwards I was able to program the fpga both with the tutorial .fpg file and a .fpg file I compiled myself.
Just one more question. Do you happen to know if it is possible to compile .fpg files for the Red Pitaya using only Vivado WebPack.
At the moment I'm using a 30 day evaluation license and I am wondering if compiling .fpg files will still work after it runs out.

Hi Lukas,
Alexander Raymond from CfA remembers we may have had the same issue in Boston last year. Thanks, Alex! He suggests the following:
"Adding 127.0.0.1 localhost to /etc/hosts worked for us in getting past the " no programming informs yet. Odd? “ error."
Let us know how you progress.
Kind regards,

Hi Lukas,
1) Did you install casperfpga using the following exactly (ReadMe.md "installation" section): https://github.com/casper-astro/casperfpga?
2) What casperfpga version are you using? Type "casperfpga.__version__" after you import casperfpga.
3) You are sure tcpborphserver is running? if it is not running then casperfpga will not work. Refer to: https://casper-toolflow.readthedocs.io/projects/tutorials/en/latest/tutorials/redpitaya/red_pitaya_setup.html.

Thank you for the quick response. I tried specifiying the port number but the same error appeared. I tried using the .fpg and python script you suggested and a very similar error message appeared:

Regarding the setup of the Red Pitaya, i mostly followed the instructions on this site: https://casper-toolflow.readthedocs.io/projects/tutorials/en/latest/tutorials/redpitaya/red_pitaya_setup.html. Only "git clone https://github.com/ska-sa/katcp.git" did not work ( fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/ska-sa/katcp.git/': Could not resolve host: github.com), so I downloaded the github on my pc and used "scp -r" to copy it to my Red Pitaya.
Regarding the casperfpga version, I followed the installation instructions on this site: https://github.com/casper-astro/casperfpga. At first I installed casperfpga using "sudo pip install casperfpga". Later I also tried "sudo python setup.py install" but it made no difference.

Hi Lukas,
This problem seems familiar to me, but I can't quite remember the solution. These are possible suggestions to try:
1) Have you tried specifying the port number? fpga = casperfpga.CasperFpga('10.42.0.69', port=7147). I remember that was necessary at some point.2) Try the actual ADC and DAC tutorial fpg and python script first and see if that programs https://github.com/casper-astro/tutorials_devel/tree/master/red_pitaya/tut_adc_dac. The script and fpg does work and I have tested that. If it doesn't work then it could be an issue with your casperfpga version or setup on the card - something like that.
Let's take it from there.

Hi all,
I am an electrical engineering student, trying to use casper with a Red Pitaya 125-14. I followed the instructions on: https://casper-toolflow.readthedocs.io to install the necessary software on Ubuntu 16.04 and the first Red Pitaya tutorial on https://casper-tutorials.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorials/redpitaya/tut_intro.html#programming-the-fpga. Currently I am trying to program the FPGA on my Red Pitaya board with a .fpg file I have compiled. Unfortunately I keep getting the following runtime error:
