Linux - Problem with files in /tmp/something

[Fotografia]

Hello everyone,

 i have found out that Hugin 2012.0.0.a94faa15c927 doesn't create the panorama if i use files that are from /tmp folder (this time they were in /tmp/pano.

I attach the output:

If i put the very same files in ~/pano everything works fine.

I can't reproduce the issue. I tested on Fedora and Win7. All files
in /tmp/pano. Output is correctly created also in this folder.

Couldn't that be again a problem with special characters in the user name?

Here i'm using Ubuntu 10.04 .

Analyzing the log i see this message:

Nessuna regola per generare l'obiettivo "/tmp/pano/pano/IMG_1947.JPG"

Should be, in english, something like no rule to create target  "/tmp/pano/pano/IMG_1947.JPG"

I see /tmp/pano/pano/IMG_1947.JPG and not only /tmp/pano/IMG_1947.JPG . Maybe the problem is here?

Thank you again.

Most definitely. My guess is that this is one of the input files, and
you didn't move them to /tmp. Would that fit?

Hi,
I had a similar problem before and I think I know what the problem is,
though I didn't look in the source (I solved my problem by doing
things in my home directory and didn't have time to drill to the
bottom of the problem; however a Hugin developer might be able to
quickly find the problem).

My analysis from the time:

Hugin generates a makefile with things to do (it is called
something.pto.mk) in your project directory. If the project is outside
/tmp, then the makefile contains absolute paths to images it
references.

If the images happen to be in /tmp, then Hugin generates relative
paths, probably because Hugin creates its own temporary directory and
whatever code generates the makefile is too smart for its own good and
realizes its opportunity to generate relative paths.
So if you create a directory
/tmp/foo
and copy all the images in there, then the makefile does not refer to
/tmp/foo/image_1234.jpg but to something like ./foo/iimage_1234.jpg
(don't remember the exact way, but I remember that it was a relative
path instead of an absolute path).

However, later the execution fails because (presumably) the process'
working directory is actually not /tmp, but /tmp/foo. So the places
where it looks for the pictures are /tmp/foo/foo/image_1234.jpg ...
which is wrong.

So - whatever code generates the makefile, it should try to be less
smart about it :)

The same path is used in the pto file:

===========================================================================
Input images
===========================================================================
Number of images in project file: 2
Number of active images: 2
Image 0: /tmp/pano/pano/IMG_1947.JPG
Image 0: Size 3648x2736, Exposure: 10.98
Image 1: /tmp/pano/pano/IMG_1948.JPG
Image 1: Size 3648x2736, Exposure: 11.57

So maybe you have saved the pto file in the parent folder and copied
the file later to the pano folder.

@Henner The project.pto.mk is not used for stitching. I checked again:
If the project file / images is in the temp folder, the makefile is
still using absolute file names. And so it works for me.

No i did everything from the gui.
 
I retried, this time images are in /tmp/prova

When i choose the point 2 (align) in the messages i see the right directory basename.

Also a strace: http://ubuntuone.com/3r5TPcaLMf1UQnEmtmLXwM

I could not reproduce the issue on my system. Could you please provide
the pto file (without jpg images)?

Thanks for files.
In the pto file the relative path prova/IMG_1947.JPG is stored. When
using this relative path in the project file /tmp/prova/IMG_1947-
IMG_1948.pto this becomes /tmp/prova/ prova/IMG_1947.JPG, which does
not exists.
When you open this project, Hugin bails about missing files, correct?

But I don't understand why the relative path is stored inside the pto
file. I can't reproduce this issue. Can somebody else reproduce this
issue?
(Create directory /tmp/pano, copy image files to this dir, add these
images to a new project and save project in /tmp/pano; now check pto
file)

If you load images first and then store the pto file, absolute paths
are used. If you store the pto file and then add images, it will use
relative paths. In fact I use this behavior quite a lot to make sure
hugin uses relative paths, because relative paths makes pto files more
portable.

Hmm, thats an interesting and relevant knowledge.

Yes. A popup appears, with something like "can't find /tmp/prova/prova/IMG_1947.JPG"

Strange. But I can not reproduce this. If I store the pto file in the
same directory as the image, the pto files contains always relative
paths. (or if the pto file is saved in one of the parent directories
of the images. Only if this does not apply, absolute paths are used.)
It makes no difference if I start from scratch or use an existing file
- always relative paths.

Strange. But I can not reproduce this.

I tried Linux Mint 14 xfce from usb stick, booted, sudo apt-get install hugin (it is the 2011.04 version in the repo) and i see the same problem.

I copied 2 images in /tmp, then i choosed align but this time i choosed the proposed /home/mint as output directory.

Here the pto files: http://ubuntuone.com/3Vzno07UxCAKfZiYqhZMOG

Here is the output log:

Hi Thomas,
I'm sure it used to work like this at some point, because that's why
my workflow has been for years to save pto and then load images. Maybe
the behavior changed meanwhile.
