No command found for ch_wave and setup_alignment

[Ahmed Abdellah]

Whenever I run ch_wave or setup_alignment I get “command not found”. I assume that these programs are imported when I run “source setup.sh”, but still, I get the error even after I do this import.

Are you encountering this problem when using the ATLab virtual machine image, or remote desktop access to the AT lab machines?

If it is the latter, I have also noticed some filesystem glitches in the past few days (I was unable to run festival) – I reported it to is.helpline@ed.ac.uk and they seemed to fix it.

Anyway, taking ch_wave for example, you should be able to find it here:

[korin@PPLS_ATL_0011 ~]$ which ch_wave
/Volumes/Network/courses/ss/festival/festival_linux/speech_tools/bin/ch_wave

Finding which part of that path is missing will indicate exactly what the problem is.

I am using the ATLab VM, and indeed the ss/ folder is empty!
How can I get its correct content?

Did you remember to rsync the extra files (~1GB) from the AT Lab machines to your virtual machine? The manifest.txt for that includes the tools and data for the Speech Synthesis course.

This solved the issue.
Thanks a lot.
