Hi,
thank you guys! That was the mistake. I don't know how often I looked at
my commands but somehow I could not see it.
Thanks a lot for your help!
Raphael

Hi,

What is the reason that during loading moses in the test time using:

./moses -f ../scripts/training/train/model/moses.ini

it calls the decoder before it fully loads itself and gets ready for
translating?

*** please note that I am talking about the period after running the above
line and right "before" asking a test sentence to be translated. I
understand that it needs to call the decoder when a test sentence is asked.

Thanks
koorm

Hi all,

after having pulled the latest version from master [b002fade] moses
crashes when being called in server mode and requested with xmlrpc-c
parameter 'word-align':

> moses --server -f /path/to/moses.ini &

Then send a request from client using 'word-align' member:

[...]
[moses/server/Server.cpp:36] Listening on port 8080

[moses/server/TranslationRequest.cpp:319] Input: Dies ist ein Test .
Translating: Dies ist ein Test .
binary file loaded, default OFF_T: -1
Line 0: Collecting options took 0.020 seconds at moses/Manager.cpp:134
Line 0: Search took 0.042 seconds
[moses/server/TranslationRequest.cpp:417] SERVER TRANSLATION: This
is a test .
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'girerr::error'
what(): Assigning to already instantiated xmlrpc_c::value


... which appears to me like a bug.

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Martin
