I'm having a problem that I don't understand. I have a file which makes
a book of etudes. I'm using a series of \bookpart{} blocks inside a
\book{} block. When I try to run the whole thing I get this at the end
of the terminal output:
Layout output to `ten.ps'...
Converting to
`./ten.pdf'.../usr/local/lilypond/usr/share/lilypond/current/scm/backend-library.scm:24:15:
In procedure system in expression (system silenced):
/usr/local/lilypond/usr/share/lilypond/current/scm/backend-library.scm:24:15:
Cannot allocate memory
bash-3.2# emacs&
[8] 7951
bash-3.2#
I tried to learn if the problem was a particular section of either the
file I'm using to generate the book or with the definitions file which
is separate. I tried commenting out the second half and then the first
half. Both halves worked independently without trouble. When I try to
run the whole thing I get the above. The definitions file is 5,000+ lines.
I'm running LilyPond mostly inside coLinux on an XP machine. I thought
maybe that could have something to do with this. I tried running the
same files natively in Windows. Same result, except that the Windows
command prompt was not so generous with the mode of failure. All I got was:
Layout output to `ten.ps'...
Converting to `./ten.pdf'...
error: failed files: "ten"
Ideas?
