Hello everybody!

I am trying to run a multi-threaded version of Moses, following instructions
on http://www.statmt.org/moses/?n=Moses.AdvancedFeatures#ntoc18
I had no trouble compiling.

However, when I try to use the multi-threaded version in a mert-tuning
process first everything seems fine (the process is using 500% CPU with
-threads 5), but then this happens:

...

Peeking at the beginning of nbestlist to get order of scores:
run1.best100.out
Line empty in nbestlist 'run1.best100.out' at
/home/aschuth/tools/moses-scripts/training/mert-moses.pl line 906.
The batch system is killing any remaining processes:
su: Permission denied
(Ignored)
/var/spool/torque/mom_priv/global.d/kill_user_procs: line 24: 11693
Killed                  su "$BATCH_USER" -c "/bin


Reading a bit more on the previously mentioned webpage, I noticed this line:

...
2. n-best lists are not available, although this should be fixed shortly
...

What exactly does that mean? Don't I need these n-best lists to do
mert-tuning? Is there a way around this?

Hoping that anyone is around despite MT-Summit!
