[CWB] cwb-make fails

[Hardie, Andrew]

Hi Luigi,

The error " No output generated -- no items?" usually means that the problem arose at an earlier stage - that is, that you declared an attribute,  but cwb-encode couldn't actually add any data for it (because that column doesn't exist in your input). So, you ended up with a zero-length attribute that cwb-huffcode - called behind the scenes by cwb-make - cannot do anything with.

This probably means there is an error in either (a) your input file formats or (b) the commands you gave to cwb-encode

best

Andrew.

Dear all,
I am using the latest version of both CWB-core and CWB-perl, e.g., development branch from svn. Make test in CWB-perl executes happily but I cannot use cwb-make to index the corpus:

">HELL CMD '/usr/local/cwb-3.4.5/bin/cwb-huffcode   -P lemma COLFIS0-0' FAILED:
>>> Non-zero exit value 1.
>>> Problem: No output generated -- no items?
>>> /home/ltalamo/corpora/data/colfis0-0/lemma.hcd: No such file or directory
>>> ERROR: reading /home/ltalamo/corpora/data/colfis0-0/lemma.hcd failed. Aborted.
 at /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1/CWB/Encoder.pm line 417"

I thought that cwb-perl were compatible with cwb-3.4.5. Otherwise, how can I index a corpus obtained with cwb 3.4.5? Should I use cwb-makeall and so on ?

Thank you,

Luigi
