Hi,

I find that the tag path for OPC tags (expose option set to true) in 7.7.8 is for example "ns=2:s=[System]Gateway/Redundancy/IsActive" where as in 7.8 it was "ns=2;s=[System]Gateway/Redundancy/IsActive" (the : instead os ; after ns=2). Also in spite of changing ; to : in my tag paths, the OPC client returns null (tag not found) for all tags! Are there any major changes between version 7.7 & 7.8?

The issue was related with CD-KEY having OPC UA permissions on it. Its resolved now.  
So there are no changes as far as OPC UA version 7.7 & 7.8 are concerned!  
Thanks a lot.

Although OPC UA server is running and OPC Client is able to access the tags, but I keep getting following warnings in the log file of Ignition. The log file keeps growing by a KB or so per second! How to stop these warning?
