Hi Ulrich,

I have a question about Moses server too. I'm testing it as a wrapper for
Across server to check pre-translation possibilities. It generally works but
there is one problem. Input segments are translated without tokenization, so
every word close to special character (for example `this is small house.`)
remains untranslated ('to jest mały house.'). I was searching list archive
and I found similar question here:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.nlp.moses.user/14020  but for me it's
not yet answered. I would appreciate any information on this subject.

Best regards,
Tomek

Hi all,

I've just pushed what I believe might address a few of the issues in this
thread:

- the more fine-grained configuration options for request handling and
queuing, server timeouts etc. (added in August due to threading issue) have
been transferred to the main moses executable.

- the server now pays attention to the xml-input option specified via json;
the range of accepted values is the same as when specified on the command
line. I have not written the xml-input handling and do not actively use it,
so it may or may not work. I don't think there are any regression tests that
test this right now. Reports from the trenches are welcome.

- mosesserver.cpp is deprecated. It is now merely a shell around the regular
moses call with --server. I did not remove it from the code base entirely,
as I assume that there's a plethora of setups out there that rely on the
existence of mosesserver. What the wrapper does is add --server to the
options and then call run regular moses.

- anyone adding stuff to mosesserver.cpp from now on owes me a lifetime
supply of the finest Laphroaig. Just send me a quarter cask every year for
Burns Nicht for the rest of my life if you do. If I haven't pushed anything
for two years, you may assume I'm dead.


- Uli

Hi Uli,


thanks a lot! We will try to add some test cases for Mosesserver, including
XML input with/without placeholders.


Best,

Evgeny.

the new server will do everything the old server did, (or do it the same

It would be fantastic if a few people could design and contribute test cases
so that we can do some regression testing for the server. Ideally a test
case should provide:

- tiny models to work with (or we may be able to recycle some that already
exist)
- sample input (json)
- expected output (json)

Cheers - Uli

It seems to be the one in moses/server, but the  one in in
contrib/server/mosesserver.cpp has been updated in August of this year with
an important fix related to multiple threads:

As Gregor mentioned, we would like to share our fix so that Mosesserver
correctly supports placeholders. I want to make sure that this is a fix for
something that many people use without problems.

Thanks,
Evgeny.

Hi,

we saw the same issue a while ago in an older version of Moses. Mosesserver
and moses use different routines to parse the input string; in particular
the code in mosesserver did not parse placeholders input correctly. It seems
to me that this is fixed in the most recent version of mosesserver (though I
have not tested this; I just looked at the code); in addition, our team is
currently discussing whether it makes sense to make available our patches to
the mosesserver code either on the version we are using, or on a more recent
version, available end of this week.

Best,

Gregor

Dear all,

I have been unsuccessful so far in using the placeholder approach with
mosesserver. The translated segments contain the placeholder token @num@
instead of numbers.
Do you know how to get the numbers in the output?

Many thanks,

Vito Mandorino
