problem building tutorial for pocketsphinx

[m_ahlenius]

thanks for your patience in response to my newb questions.

Am using AN4 - with little endian settings. Am trying to build and test pocketsphinx
first on my desktop (linux) and then for the gumstix.

I have done the following and keep getting an error:
Set up the trainer
Set up the decoder
Downloaded & installed & compiled pocketsphinx & sphinxbase
I then ran the tutorial setup

perl scripts/setup_tutorial.pl an4

which has you do two more tasks:

cd ../an4
perl scripts_pl/make_feats.pl -ctl etc/an4_test.fileids

perl scripts_pl/decode/slave.pl

Its this last step that I keep getting the following error:
perl scripts_pl/decode/slave.pl
MODULE: DECODE Decoding using models previously trained
Can't open file /home/ahlenius/sphinx/tutorial/an4/result/an4.match

---

So I must have messed up somewhere, the "result" dir above does not exist.

any suggestions?

thanks all!

Error is not always last line in the log, most probably it's somewhere in the decode log in logdir/decode folder. Look there. Search for occurence of the ERROR word and it give you a hint about problem.

Hi,

i have searched for a logdir/decode folder path, but cannot find it. Where are these logs located?

I did find a logdir under an4, but there are no error logs in there.

thx

Please double-check you properly compiled and installed pocketsphinx. The binary must be functioning first of all. Try to run pocketsphinx-tidigits for example to check it working.
