Virtual Machine Specification not available #10

Closed ziqihuangg closed 4 years ago

Dear Authors @rohitgirdhar ,

I tried to download and use the VM Spec but the downloaded spec_v0.img file is corrupted.

May I ask whether the link to download the VM spec is updated? Could you kindly share the working URL to download the VM spec for CATER?

I used the download link in this webpage: https://cmu.box.com/s/krg7ehliaidruxjk21nfxsa0gge2uf2o, as provided in CATER-master/generate/README.md. However, when I tried to open the downloaded 3.0 GB spec_v0.img file, it says “The disc image file is corrupted”. If I specify the directory of the downloaded spec_v0.img file in launch.py and run launch.py, it prompts “singularity: not found”, as if there weren’t any spec_v0.img file. I have tried downloading and opening the spec_v0.img file on MacOS, Windows and Ubuntu, but all led to the same issue. I have tried using “wget” command to download the spec_v0.img file, but I didn’t find the specific URL for downloading.

I'm interested in your work and would like to learn from it. Thank you very much!

Hi @ziqihuangg thanks for your interest and apologies for the delay in responding. The link should be correct, nevertheless I updated the link to a direct download link that should make it easier to download on a headless server. You can use something like 

$  wget https://cmu.box.com/shared/static/krg7ehliaidruxjk21nfxsa0gge2uf2o.im -O spec_0.img
$ singularity run spec_0.img

I just tried it using the img file downloaded from Box, and it seems to work for me on a different machine from where it was created. Perhaps there is some other issue in terms of your singularity installation? Maybe try running some standard singularity img file to see if this issue is specific to this img file?

Hi @rohitgirdhar thank you for the direct download link. Both singularity and the img work now :)
