[SRILM User List] Problem installing SRILM

[Gary Hess]

Hi Nickolay,


I ran "make SRILM=$cwd World" and it compiled (suggestion from Andreas Stolcke).


Best regards,

Gary

You probably did something bad when you modified the makefile on top of that change.

There is no need to change the shell.

It is not a problem.

This error is caused by your Makefile modification most likely. Maybe you can try from a clean state again and be more careful.

If you still have your error, share the Makefile with your edits.Also share the build.log which you can create with a command

     make -d World 2>&1 > build.log
