Not Enough Space: Grep Error in Windows
- Details
- Category: Generalia
I was once trying to run a grep command to a directory and looking for a string inside it.
While the directory I was looking into was in a different drive (F:) than that of the system drive (C:) where the grep was installed.
I used the command prompt to first descend into the directory. So, I first went into the directory such that my command prompt looked like as follows:
F:\MySearchDirectory>
As I was already into this directory, I just shot the gremp command like the following:
grep -r "mysearchstring"
But this came with an error as follows:
grep: (standard input): Not enough space
Of course my computer did not have any issues with the space as this was an I7 processor with a huge 16GB of RAM and the hard disk had more than 40% available in all the drives.
This must have to be something else.
I tried to find out but the solutions given were rather too geeky like installing cygwin to do this.
However, I tried to do this using another method. I closed the command prompt and started it again. I did not change my directory in the commmand prompt to F: drive this time. Rather I just shot the following command at its default location:
grep -r "mysearchstring" F:\MySearchDirectory
And lo, the result was out there in no time.
So, what did it do? I guess wingrep works best when it is in its default location and target anything at other location.
Hope this helps another Windows user.
A Note on Installing RxNorm on your System

I was trying to install RxNorm 2014 on my system, a Windows machine and had an issue in installing it properly using the scripts provided in the downloaded files.
The downloaded files have a directory for the scripts. The scripts are meant for different platforms. I was on a Windows machine and for the script was the file with the .bat extension. I edited this file to provide the information on the MySQL installation and configuration for my PC. After this I ran this script. But it gave me an error as shown in the log file created. The error was like this:
"File 'RXNATOMARCHIVE.RRF' not found (Errcode: 2)"
It could not find the RRF files which were necessary to populate the tables.
Solution:
This was a sure indication it was an error in path. And most likely, you have not read the documentation. If you read the documentation of RxNorm in full, you will find that they tell you to move the scripts and the relevant sql files to the same directory where RRF files are located. That means you need to copy these files one directory back to the RRF directory and run the .bat file once again.
Once this is done, the MySQL installation of RxNorm should be okay.
Please, note if you are not able to edit the .bat file second time after you have done it once, make another copy of the .bat file and run that. Things would go okay.

Another very melodious song which could be attributed to both Bhojpuri and Maithili. The lyrics are given below. Curiously, the song is sung by an Assamese singer, Kalpana Patowary. Do not know who wrote the lyrics. The lyrics is very simple in meaning and can be summarized as follows.
It talks about the fruition of different native fruits (except apple) in the native place of Bihar and around. This is being eaten by a parrot and the lyricist threatens the parrot that he will kill it. After the parrot is killed, the female parrot will cry out in agony of his leaving. And thus to save this agony, the lyricist is praying to the god Sun to be helpful.
The meaning rather is very hotch-potched and nothing comes out clearly except that it does evoke an painful emotion in you. But this is more of the magic of the voice singing it.
Hinglish lyrics of the song:

Making Google Voice and Video Plugin work on Windows 8 Desktop
I recently shifted to Windows 8. Earlier I was using Windows 7 Pro and so I did only an upgrade to Windows 8 so that I did not have to install all my applications all over again.
The upgrade was fine except for one thing. After a few days of upgrade I found that I was unable to make a video or voice call using the Gmail feature. Whenever I tried to make a call, I was asked to install the "Google Voice and Video Chat plugin" and it will take me to this link: https://www.google.com/chat/video/

Here is one of my favourite Bhojpuri song.
कवने खोतवा में लुकईलू अहि रे बालम चिड़ई, अहि रे बालम चिड़ई
बन-बन ढुंढ़ली दर दर ढुंढ़ली , ढुंढ़ली नदी के तीरे
सांझ के ढुंढ़ली, रात के ढुंढ़ली, ढुंढ़ली होत फजीरे
जन में ढुंढ़ली, मन में ढुंढ़ली, ढुंढ़ली बीच बजारे
पिया हिया में पैस के ढुंढ़ली, ढुंढ़ली बिरह के मारे
कोने अंतरे में समईलू अहि रे बालम चिड़ई
हमनी के छोड़ि के नगरिया ए बाबा

My favourite song from an upcoming movie "Gangs of Wasseypur"!
I have given the lyrics here in proper Devanagari. I am yet to know who wrote the lyrics.
Whatever, do listen to the songs. It has a very touching voice that runs very deep into your ears!
Cheers!
हमनी के छोड़ि के नगरिया ए बाबा
की आरे बाबा छोड़ि दिहले घर परिवार कवन बनवा माई गईली हो
आरे बाबा सूना कई के अंगना-दुआर, कवन बनवा माई गईली हो
आ गऊआं के लोगवा, केहू... केहू से ना बोले
छोटका लईकबा भोरही से आंखे नहि खोले
सुनसान भईली डगरिया ए बाबा
कि आरे बाबा निमिया हो गैल पतझार
कवन बनवा माई गईलि हो
