Error in Training a Bangla Voice about language-resources HOT 11 CLOSED

It seems like ehmm was not install correctly.

• Try deleting everything under /build/.....
• Run this script [1]
• Then run the script to install festival again.

    export FESTIVAL_SUIT_PATH=<your desired path to install Festival>
    mkdir ${FESTIVAL_SUIT_PATH} && ./third_party/festvox/setup.sh

Actually both of the festival installations are similar so you can use the merlin's festival installation if it works. Its hard to debug why festival is not installing properly with the current script without a log.

To fix realpath
run

sudo apt-get install coreutils
which realpath

or in [1] replace
export MERLIN_PATH=$(realpath "$2") with export MERLIN_PATH=$2 just make sure you give a absolute path when running setup_merlin.sh.

Thanks, @pasindud. I'll do it and post the results back.

@pasindud The above problem is solved. I've built a festival voice successfully (using google data). Now I am having an error in setting up merlin. The error goes as follows:

Generating HTS questions
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./festival_utils/generate_hts_questions.py", line 162, in <module>
    main(sys.argv)
  File "./festival_utils/generate_hts_questions.py", line 121, in main
    phonology = json.loads(open(argv[1]).read())
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'en_US.UTF-8/festvox/phonology.json'

It seems that generate_hts_questions.py does not getting the path of phonology.json file. Should I hard-code the path in the code? Or is there any better way?

Fixed the typo in d4b8e64 , patch the new commit and it should work.

@pasindud Problem still exists. I ran your script. Everything was installed successfully, except realpath (Is that a problem? If so, what is the work-around?). Then installed festival again. But it seems that probably festvox is not installed correctly. There is no entry of
<path to festival>/build/festvox/src/ehmm/bin/FeatureExtraction.
The size of festvox folder is 11.8 MB. But I remember it's size was around 30 MB when I installed it with merlin a few months ago (but unfortunately, I deleted that folder).

Can you have look at it? My python and gcc versions are mentioned below, in case it is required.

$ python --version
Python 2.7.15 :: Anaconda, Inc.
$ gcc --version
gcc (Ubuntu 4.8.5-4ubuntu8) 4.8.5

I assumed previously when you said the above, the .../ehmm/bin/FeatureExtraction issue was fixed ?

• What was the error installing realpath ?

from language-resources.

I fixed that issue by copying festvox folder from a previous merlin installation into festival/build/ directory. But then I decided, that shouldn't be the proper way to set things up. So, today I removed everything, and started from scratch ... by installing merlin, and so on. But now I notice that .../ehmm/bin/FeatureExtraction is missing everywhere. So I can not proceed with festival training anymore.

The error of installing realpath is:

$ sudo apt install realpath
[sudo] password for arif: 
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package realpath is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  manpages-pl manpages-fr-extra

E: Package 'realpath' has no installation candidate

Assuming this is fixed
