Confused about running the main executable

[DoktorMike]

Thanks for taking the time to build this! Awesome initiative.

So I'm stuck here because I did this:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build . --config Release

I go back to the root project folder and I download the weights into a weights folder and run the convert script

python convert.py --dir-model ./weights/ --out-dir ./ggml_weights

and all is well. I get the ggml_weights folder.

This is now my directory structure:

.

└── weights
    ├── config.json
    ├── merges.txt
    ├── pytorch_model.bin
    ├── README.md
    └── vocab.json

Then I go to

cd build/bin
./main -p "trastuzumab"                                                                                                                                                                                         15:27:19
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  Perl Uniprops file not available.
fish: Job 1, './main -p "trastuzumab"' terminated by signal SIGABRT (Abort)

So for some reason the executable doesn't run and it's missing perl uniprops which are already located in your data folder. But it still doesn't work.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi @DoktorMike !

Thanks for pointing this out. I just merged a PR which should fix this issue.
Can you delete your build subfolder and re-run:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build . --config Release

./bin/biogpt -p "trastuzumab"
