step 2: OTP run fails because of parameter error

[dancesWithCycles]

Hi folks, How are you? Thank you very much for providing this awesome tutorial. Following step 2 discloses this error.

Step 20/26 : RUN java -Xmx$MEMORY -jar otp-shaded.jar --build build/$ROUTER_NAME | tee build/build.log
 ---> Running in 360774d1bb42
10:54:12.498 ERROR (OTPMain.java:91) Parameter error: --build must be used with --save or --serve (or both) Use --help to see 

It looks like OTP is complaining about a missing parameter. The entire instruction log follows below for the sake of completeness. I will let you know if I find a working configuration. Cheers!

We recently migrated to OTP2 but the tutorial isn't using it as of now. However, I did migrate it in a PR, that has not been merged yet: https://github.com/stadtnavi/stadtnavi-tutorial/pull/9

If you'd like to be the beta tester for that, go ahead!

Hi @leonardehrenfried , I would love to be a beta tester. However, I have not used docker compose before. I am a bit confused about the memory config in the Dockerfile, the .env and the docker-compose.yml file. Is the memory usage/requirement at the end of the day 5 or 31? I think I need to figure that out as my dev environment does not has a big memory pool and already ran into a Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space exception. Do you know anything about that? Cheers!

[leonardehrenfried]

To build a graph of Baden-Württemberg you need a lot of memory, probably 16Gb but perhaps 8GB is enough.

We should probably change the default config.

You need a lot of memory when working with OTP graphs in general.

Hi @leonardehrenfried, Thank you so much for the background. Cheers!
