[maker-devel] Maker regularly fails and just lost all of the previous work!

[Mark Ebbert]

Hi,

I’ve been working with maker for several months off and on with varying success. It worked great the first time I ran it, but ever since, it fails every run without any specific errors. Just says that one of the processes failed. I’ve been limping along by just running the following command to remove any locks and re-starting: “find . -name *.NFSLock* -exec rm {} \;”

This has been working, but for some reason maker started over from the beginning and lost all of the previous work! I don’t even know where to start interrogating. Should I nuke the whole maker directory structure and start from scratch? Maybe something got corrupted??

I already deleted the log files before I realized maker started over because the log files get way too big.

I really appreciate your help!
