hi
< rcurtin>
jamesjohnson92: hello there
< jamesjohnson92>
i am facing an error when i type doxygen in root directory
< jamesjohnson92>
error: Could not open file /home/jamesjohnson92/mlpack-2.0.0/doc/man/man3/mlpack_tree_TreeTraits_ BinarySpaceTree_ MetricType, StatisticType, MatType, BoundType, SplitType _ _.3 for writing
< jamesjohnson92>
Exiting...
< rcurtin>
what version of doxygen?
< jamesjohnson92>
1.8.12
< rcurtin>
there's no trouble writing that file on my system... is it possible that that filename exceeds your filesystem's length limit?
< rcurtin>
fat32 for instance only supports filenames of up to 255 characters
< rcurtin>
(although... that one is only 104)
< jamesjohnson92>
Ok
< rcurtin>
could it be a permissions error, or that the filesystem is full?
< jamesjohnson92>
Is there any way to solve this
< jamesjohnson92>
any clue , on how to solve would be helpful
< rcurtin>
I've just suggested three possibilities for what the problem might be
< rcurtin>
did you check if your filesystem is full?
< rcurtin>
or if you have permissions to write to the directory /home/jamesjohnson92/mlpack-2.0.0/doc/man/man3/?
< rcurtin>
or if you are on a shared system, have you used all of the space allotted to you via a quota?
< jamesjohnson92>
I checked
< jamesjohnson92>
FileSystem is empty
< jamesjohnson92>
I have full permissions on that directory
< rcurtin>
what is the type of the filesystem?
< rcurtin>
and what happens if you try to create a file of the same name manually?
