pre decoding errors

[Tony]

1. sphinx_decode.cfg not in the etc folder. Why?

2. However, I just copied from the internet and created sphinx_decode.cfg
   During decoding, it failed at can't open model.match file, and no log was
   created for this error. I checked and there were no result dir nor .match
   file. What could've gone wrong?

Thanks,
Tony

1. sphinx_decode.cfg not in the etc folder. Why?

Because it's the configuration file for sphinx3 decoder use only, but not
included in SphinxTrain.
Try to run Perl setup script similar to what tutorial shows for setting up
SphinxTrain, e.g.

perl path/to/sphinx3/scripts/setup_sphinx3.pl -task your_task_name

Check/modify the locations of AM and LM in sphinx_decode.cfg. After that,
under your_task_name directory run

perl scripts_pl/decode/slave.pl

Thank you for your reply.

Now I get an error of can't open model-1-1.match doesn't matter if i use
sclite or word_align to do it. The log shows bin/sphinx3_decode keeps looking
in the bin/.libs or ./libs/.libs for the sphinx3_decode itself.

a binary file under bin/.libs/ should be compiled and generated automatically
when you run

perl scripts_pl/decode/slave.pl

Please check the log file again where the "ERROR" words are. The most ERRORs
are caused by file locations, parameters settings.
