[fomus-devel] Installation problem: fomus commandline application
Dear all, I am new to this list and did not find my problem discussed already. Apologies if if this is a FAQ. I tried to install the fomus commandline application, without success so far. It appears the compilation finishes successfully, then a Fomus greating message appears which ends up in the debugger. I get an error message which reads something like the following (copied by hand, hopefully without typos..) debugger invoked on an END-OF-FILE in thread 8843: end of file on #<SB-IMPL::STRING-INPUT-STREAM {9734081}> <snipped> (SB-IMPL::STRING-INCH 3 #<SB-IMPL:: STRING-INPUT-STREAM {some number}> T NIL)[:EXTERNAL] I tried Fomus 0.2.6 with SBCL 0.8.16 and a CMUCL snapshot from 2004 -- all on Linux (Fedora Core 3). Thank you very much!

Dear Torsten, you tried it with sbcl and cmucl and get basically the same error? For the sbcl case - maybe it would be good just to try with 0.9.16 ? Just to be sure: You are invoking it with $ ./install.sh --sbcl (no other options?) A friend of mine had a problem _using_ the fomus cmdline app... The error message was similar (if I remember correctly). It showed up, that the encoding of his text input file was unicode.... Changing it to Latin-1 made it work! There is even a 0.9.16 binary release available on http://sbcl.sourceforge.net/platform-table.html, so again, its probably best to try that. Have you successfully compiled and used fomus from the Lisp REPL? Hope that helps somehow, if not, I am sure that David will now, but he might need a longer backtrace then... ;-) Cheers, Kilian Am 06.09.2006 um 11:50 schrieb Torsten Anders:

I'll take a look at this today... When run at the command line it shouldn't get caught in the debugger, it should print the error and exit... Another bug that I'll look at. -David Torsten Anders wrote:

I am just wondering if the installer assumes that ~/.fomus exists? So, a workaround could be touch ~/.fomus.
From what I can tell, it's complaining that it can't read your .fomus file--I've fixed the code so it won't enter the debugger if that happens (and choke on it when it compiles)--I'll release the update in a few days (I have to test a few other changes I've made first).
More text file examples will get posted in the docs shortly, and I'll put a better .fomus init file example up... I'm adding some options to control the output: -v view immediately (invoke the pd or pdf viewer after compiling cmn or lilypond) -l output a lilypond score file -c output a cmn file -x output musicxml -f output musicxml w/ finale kludges -s output musicxml w/ sibelius kludges (I have to check if Sibelius has fixed anything in their xml import--last time I tried it it was hopeless) -m output a fomus file (won't accomplish all that much--it'll be nearly the same as your input file) -o base output filename -q set the "quality" value (alters computation time) Usage: fomus [-lxfscmvo] filename Also, you should be able to put "\" characters at the ends of lines you want to be read as one (seemed necessary as I was generating examples). -David
Dear David and dear Kilian, Thank you very much for your comments. Perhaps I need to clarify a bit the problem I encountered: I ran the script install.sh on a machine without any predefined Fomus and the build process failed for both sbcl and cmucl with a similar error. I checked out svn after your changes, David. This script still ends in the Lisp debugger with pretty much the same error -- but now without any compilation before. And yes, there has been no ~/.fomus on my machine yet. Nevertheless, I also tried the script with an empty ~/.fomus which showed the same behaviour.

Torsten,

If there's no compilation, this tells me that nothing changed when you updated (it's just loading the old .fasl files instead of compiling new ones) and otherwise it's just doing the same thing, but I can't know for sure. I just need more information--I can see the Lisp can't read some file, but I don't know which one it is. Could you cut+paste the entire output, from when you type the ./install.sh command to where it breaks? Also use SBCL and please include a backtrace (type "backtrace" at the debug prompt in SBCL), I at least need to know which file is the problem file. If the backtrace shows you a filename, could you also e-mail me that file? Also, unzip the attached fomus_dbg file and use this, to be absolutely sure you have the same code I have. This will help me a lot. Sorry for the inconvenience, I just can't replicate the error. Also, SBCL 0.8.16 is a bit older than the current release (0.9.16 last time I looked), and I think CMUCL might have bumped up a version or two since 2004--the current version is 19c--this could be an issue. Thanks, David
