Running the run.sh script

[Patrice Yemmene]

Hello,

I am having another issue where when I attempt to run the run.sh file, I get the following error message:

 line 50 local/voxforge_select.sh permission denied

I have granted permission to myself with all privileges to this file, but yet, I am not able to run the script successfully.

I was hoping someone would be able to assist me.

Kind regards,

Patrice Yemmene

You probably made a mistake earlier on, like forgetting to make a link
to local/, or being in the wrong directory.

That file has correct permissions in the repository:

ls -l ../../../voxforge/s5/local/voxforge_select.sh

-rwxr-xr-x 1 dpovey fax 809 Mar  2  2016 ../../../voxforge/s5/local/voxforge_select.sh

(see the first "x").

There must be something messed up with your system.  Try again chmod +x local/voxforge_select.sh, and try running it directly from the shell:

local/voxforge_select.sh

but this is really a local system problem, you should find someone local with more UNIX experience to help.

You are using some *nix OS, you can find the permission

$ ls -l

-rw-rw-r-- 1 user group 5484 Oct 21 19:29 run.sh

You can apply all permissions for all *.sh scripts under egs

$ cd path/to/kaldi/egs

$ find ./ -name "*.sh" -type f -exec chmod +x {} \;

OR just change permission of that particular file

$ cd /path/to/kaldi/egs/lre/v1

$ chmod +x run.sh

Then you can find that permission was granted by 

$ ls -l

-rwxrwxr-x 1 user group 5484 Oct 21 19:29 run.sh

Hello,

And thank you for continuous assistance. below is another error message I get while runing the run.sh file:

--- Searching for OOV words ...
awk: cmd. line:1: fatal: cannot open file `data/local/vocab-full.txt' for reading (No such file or directory)
awk: fatal: cannot open file `data/local/vocab-full.txt' for reading (No such file or directory)
0 data/local/dict/vocab-oov.txt
0 data/local/dict/lexicon-iv.txt
--- Downloading a pre-trained Sequitur G2P model ...
conf/g2p_model: No such file or directory
Failed to download the g2p model!

I am not able to locate the vocab-full.txt file anywhere. Is it a file I was suppose to create? If so, what kind of data was needed in it?

Also, the vocab-oov.txt as well as the lexicon-iv.txt as there but empty. I was wondering what type of data was expected to be there

Thank you kindly for assisting.

Probably something went wrong earlier that meant that the file data/local/vocab-full.txt did not exist and the directory conf/ was not created.

I suspect you may have downloaded or obtained Kaldi in an unusual way, or you've moved stuff around, because conf/ is part of the directory tree in the repository.

Hello Dan,

Thank you very much. I did move my work from my virtual machine to another. However, I made sure kaldi was installed on th new virtual machine  before the work was moved over. Do know if re-installing kaldi would cause any issues?

Thank you

It shouldn't.  But I can't help with this type of debugging.  Figuring out where a file should have been written and finding the original source of the problem is something you'll have to do yourself.

[Patrice Yemmene]

Thank you very much. I should be able to figure it out.
