I have been running our parser installed as part of NLPL. The parser uses a python neural network library called dynet which neede to be run by dynet_python. The other parts of the parser are the ordinary python codes. > > > > Bests, > > Ali > > > > > > From: Stephan Oepen <oe@ifi.uio.no> > Date: Monday, 15 April 2019 at 22:59 > To: Ali Basirat <ali.basirat@lingfil.uu.se> > Cc: "infrastructure@nlpl.eu" <infrastructure@nlpl.eu> > Subject: Re: No more available loop devices, try increasing 'max loop devices' in singularity.conf > > > > hi ali, > > > > i believe we should have no shortage of computing resources (cpu hours) on the NLPL account these days. you can inspect that using the cost(1) command-line tool. > > > > the error message sounds more as if there is a technical issue related to singularity containers; possibly, there are just too many containers currently in use. i will forward your query to the system administrators and copy you. > > > > out of curiosity, what do you run in singularity? is it something we could make available as part of the common NLPL software modules, i.e. avoiding the container overhead? > > > > best wishes, oe > > > > > > > > On Mon, 15 Apr 2019 at 14:47 Ali Basirat <ali.basirat@lingfil.uu.se> wrote: > > Hi Stephan, > > > > I am Ali Basirat, working with Joakim Nivre on the parsing part of the NLPL project. I wonder if you can help me with the following error I have received a couple of days ago. When submitting new jobs to the Abel cluster I receive "No more available loop devices, try increasing 'max loop devices' in singularity.conf". I guess this is related to the lack of available resources associated with our project. > > > > Thanks a lot for your support! > > > > Bests, > > Ali > > > > > > > > > > När du har kontakt med oss på Uppsala universitet med e-post så innebär det att vi behandlar dina personuppgifter.
