Hi Kenneth, Thanks! I must confess that I fought and fought over the past 3-day weekend trying to get Moses and Moses for Mere Mortals to work on my Windows 10 Ubuntu install. It was so painful and overheated my box too (a dell inspirion i7-6700 16GB RAM and running Windows 10). And nothing worked! Try as I might, something always failed at the end.
So, it's back to the drawing board for me. I'm thinking of installing Cygwin and trying Moses on that. My *nix-foo isn't the best, but I'm not a novice. Trying to get Moses to work has been surprisingly difficult, at least for me. Back to work... Wax on...wax off...

The symlink already exists and the build system is trying to make it again (this also means not windows). I suppose we should be using ln -sf. Try deleting CreateProbingPT2 then rebuilding.

It seems you are using a Windows file system and this is causing some unit tests in KenLM to fail. I would recommend you do everything on Linux * Looking for MT/NLP opportunities * Hieu Hoang http://moses-smt.org/ On 28 May 2017 at 00:50, daideqi <[email protected]> wrote: Hi, Respectfully request help with Moses. I'm trying to compile it on Windows 10 Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS. I successfully built Moses yesterday but decided to delete the mosesdecoder folder and rebuild for practice. Unfortunately, it's not working anymore, and I'm following the instructions that the system gave me. As an aside, I got this error after running the recommended bjam command: ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘CreateProbingPT2’: File exists Would be grateful for assistance that can be provided. Very Respectfully, Chaz ______________________________ _________________ Moses-support mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.mit.edu/ mailman/listinfo/moses-support _______________________________________________ Moses-support mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/moses-support
