cannot stat ‘parallel-20141022’: No such file or directory

[dbaldwin]

Guys,

I'm excited about this project. Nice vision for what you're doing. Something like this needs to exist in our community. I have a YouTube channel where I cover many different aspects of UAV mapping. You can see it here:

I plan on covering OpenDroneMap as soon as I get more familiar with it. So I just tried installing on a Amazon EC2 instance running Ubuntu 14.04.1 and received the following error:

ubuntu@ip-172-31-8-243:~/OpenDroneMap$ ./install.sh

• unzipping sources
  mv: cannot stat ‘parallel-20141022’: No such file or directory

Perhaps I should email Daniel Schwarz but I wanted to open an issue here. I believe the problem is when parallel-20141022.tar.bz2 was unzipped it created the following directory:

parallel-20100922

or at least that's the directory that exists on my system. To get around this I changed the install script from:

mv -f parallel-20141022 "$PARALLEL_PATH"

to:

mv -f parallel-20100922 "$PARALLEL_PATH"

but it looks like that didn't do the trick. After running install.sh again the script stopped here:

parallel
- configuring parallel
- building paralel

With no output like "script finished". I'm continuing to look into the issue and this is my first install so perhaps I'm doing something wrong.

Thanks for getting this project going. I'm hoping to become more familiar with these tools and ultimately help contribute.

All the best,

As a follow up I tried unzipping using this command as the install script does it:

tar xjf parallel.tar.bz2

and it yielded the directory:

parallel-20100922

I'm off to see if there is a different package at gnu.org.

Hi @dbaldwin, I think I know what you're running into. I'll take a look and verify tomorrow.

[wildintellect]

I hit this too, it looks like the issue is that parallel.tar.bz2 is in the code checkout. This causes an error when it goes to download a newer version of parallel because it thinks it's already downloaded but the local version is incorrect. Solution is to delete parallel.tar.bz2

[smathermather]

I thought I'd pushed that change... Will do so now.

[smathermather]

Thanks @wildintellect -- @dbaldwin, try pulling and trying again.

[dbaldwin]

I just spun up an Ubuntu 14.04 64 Bit instance on Amazon and the install was flawless. Thanks!

[smathermather]

Awesome.

[smathermather]

@dbaldwin -- any screenshots of output to share? BTW, check out the new branch #13 which includes texturing. It will also create orthophoto for images with GPS coords in EXIF (cc @wildintellect)

[smathermather]

@wildintellect -- can you create an issue for the problems you've seen on 14.04? I want to track that, but don't remember the specifics. Thanks!

[dbaldwin]

I ran a sample of 85 images on a 18 acre tract of land near me. I am impressed with the results so far. The 1st screen shows the dense point cloud and the second shows the texture. Not bad! If it's of any interest I can upload a comparison of what I get from PhotoScan. I plan on doing a YouTube video walking through this process soon. The docs have been helpful, but I feel like a video demonstrating the process will be very useful. Also, I'm excited about the new branch. Since these same photos have been geotagged I'll run it through the new orthophoto process. Glad to see you've been busy!

[smathermather]

Looks great @dbaldwin! Definitely interested to see the orthophoto.

[smathermather]

Also, I'd love to see how this compares to Photoscan, @dbaldwin.

@smathermather I did an overview video here to introduce the viewers of my channel to this awesome project:

Here is a link that contains the source imagery as well as the output of Photoscan Pro:

Excellent @dbaldwin! Can you add the video to the readme as a pull request? This will make an excellent addition.
