That message indicates that there was no data for the tense attribute.  That may mean that errors won’t show up till you query that attribute.

Usually this means that something is wrong  in the original file.

best

Hi,

I am compiling a corpus with the following bash file:

echo "Deleting older version of CWB-formatted files in data directory"
echo ""
rm /WebCorpora/data/fall/*

echo "Encoding corpus with CWB tools"
echo ""

cwb-encode -d /WebCorpora/data/fall/ -R /WebCorpora/registry/fall -f /WebCorpora/upload/spintxFall4web.cpr -xsB -P lemma -P pos -P punct -P start -P end -P tense -P mood -P numb -P pers -P gend -V text:0+id -V speaker:0+type -V lang:0+code

cwb-make -M 256 -r /WebCorpora/registry/ FALL
echo "DONE!"
date

And I get the following message:

WARNING (SHELL CMD '/usr/local/bin/cwb-huffcode -r '/WebCorpora/registry/' -T -P tense FALL'):
-> Warning on stderr:
-> Problem: No output generated -- no items?
CWB::Indexer: Creation of component tense/CIS (/WebCorpora/data/fall/tense.huf) failed (aborted).
 at /opt/local/bin/cwb-make line 76


However, it seems that the corpus has been encoded. A couple of basic queries I did did work. Should I be worried or warned about future problems? Or I can just ignore this message?

Best regards,
Marti
