Andrew, Martin, Rowena, Thanks for the replies. What I clearly don’t understand are the basic building blocks of Therion, folder structures etc Dave C has kindly offered to look at my stuff and advise so hopefully I will sort this out soon. I suspect I am at a point that a lot of folk get to in their Therion leaning curve so once I get my head round this I may write a wiki article about this from a novice point of view. It really should be a continuation of Footlegs excellent tutorial which I have referred to many times over the last few months. Andrew, files will be in the registry by the end of the day I promises. Thanks once again all Nick. ________________________________ From: therion-bounces@speleo.sk [mailto:therion-bounces@speleo.sk] On Behalf Of Martin Sluka Sent: 19 August 2015 08:38 To: List for Therion users Subject: Re: [Therion] Data Management Nick, thbook: • -d ▷ Turn on debugging mode. The current implementation creates a temporary directory named thTMPDIR (in your system temporary directory) and does not delete any temporary files. may you run therion with -d parameter and check the files inside the folder thTMPDIR? May you send me both the log from therion and that folder thTMPDIR zipped? m. 19. 8. 2015 v 5:20, rowena_l@tpg.com.au<mailto:rowena_l@tpg.com.au>: hello, I have successfully created an area PDF for the 70+ caves in my area of interest in Australia, using Therion. Can you give more details of what your result is giving? eg is an error being displayed, can you produce a .3d file or .lox file of the survey legs, are you able to see a pdf created that is missing data? ----- Original Message ----- From: "List for Therion users" <therion@speleo.sk<mailto:therion@speleo.sk>> To: "List for Therion users" <therion@speleo.sk<mailto:therion@speleo.sk>> Cc: Sent: Tue, 18 Aug 2015 16:01:45 +0100 Subject: [Therion] Data Management Hi all, After lots of trial and error I am now producing some good outputs of individual caves but now I have hit a wall. I believe I’m not getting the data management correct. Here’s what I do, I have a folder for the area/system in that folder I have other folders for the individual caves; this is where my Top Parser produced th2 .th and config files first landed. I also have all the Therion produced outputs in these files. So far so good I think. All works well, good outputs from pdf’s to kml’s. Now I want to produce a pdf of the area/system using these separate caves but try as hard as I may I’m just not succeeding. I have read all the stuff on the wiki over and over and checked back though this mailing list but all my attempts at this output have failed. Next plan of attack was to look at other people’s data in the Cave Registry Data Archive which helped and I now see how the .th and config files should look but I am still missing something some where. I keep seeing snatches of info about index files but can find no definitive instruction on how to use them. I realise this problem probable has a simple solution and given enough time I am sure I can work it out but life’s too short to dick about for hours especially when someone out there has the answer. Also I have a deadline looming on some of these maps and I’m now getting a bit worried I will not make it. Any help would be appreciated and if anyone in the Yorkshire area wants to compare notes (I’m sure that there are more numptys like me out there) I will travel and bring beer. Nick. _______________________________________________ Therion mailing list Therion@speleo.sk<mailto:Therion@speleo.sk> http://mailman.speleo.sk/mailman/listinfo/therion
