Error while installing on Mac about baleen HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi dangermouse198,

Thanks for the feedback, I actually discovered the same issue on Friday when trying to build a version at home. I believe that the issue is to do with how the Mac handles temporary files and symlinks, so I will look into this and try to come up with a fix.

In the mean time, I believe it is just a case of the test failing, as opposed to there being any issues with the collection reader, so you should be able to build successfully by skipping that particular test.

Hey James, thanks for looking into this issue! Macs just have to be different, don't they! Does this error occur in other Unix based operating systems?

Please can you tell me how I can skip the test and install the rest of the package in the meantime? I'm keen to get it up and running so I can actually test some data :)

I'm using Eclipse to install the package.

Kind regards,

No, this appears to be specific to Macs as we've tested it on Unix without any issues.

You can either skip all tests (in Eclipse, you can do this by checking the Skip Tests box in the Maven run configuration), or just that one by adding the @Ignore annotation to the test in the source code.

That said, have you considered just using the pre-built version available on the Releases tab?

Hi, no idea it was available that way! I'll give the @ignore a try first, then the pre-built version if I fail.

Thanks!
