Hi Long,

file.

"runs" is not a file but a directory. You create it in the first step of
the section "Run the pipeline" with the command

mkdir ~/joshua-tutorial/runs

and afterwards you change into that directory with "cd" and do the training
runs in that directory. The name of the directory is probably not even
relevant.

That indicates that there is a problem with KenLM. KenLM is a tool to
create a language model efficiently. Have you followed the steps in the
section "Dependencies - KenLM" on the "Getting Started" page?

Michael

Re: ping on RC4 vote

Hi,

from my last mail:

"What does not match for me are the md5 or sha1 of the stagging repo with
those of the source release artifacts. E.g. https://repository.apache.org/
content/repositories/orgapachejoshua-1005/org/apache/joshua/joshua
-incubating/6.1/joshua-incubating-6.1-src.tar.gz.md5 vs
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/joshua/6.1/joshua
-incubating-6.1-src.tar.gz.md5  "

If this is the expected behavior, then its a +1 from me, too.

Cheers,
Michael
