Problems verifying Gaviota tablebases

PostPosted: 28 Nov 2015, 21:30

After generating Gaviota tablebases, I ran into a problem evaluating them. I emailed an inquiry to mballicora but haven't received any response.
Following is that email:

(Please excuse the bandwidth)





I ran into the same problem running tbtest: files kpk, krk, kqk are not found. Is there some way to specify where the files are?


Oh, BTW, I'm running 4 cores with Windows 8.1.


Thank you, again.

I'm in the process of setting up the Gaviota tablebases and have run into a snag.


I generated the whole thing using tbgen. They were generated to the path C:\Chess Programs\Gaviota\gaviota-1.0-windows\gtb. In addition, I downloaded some files directly.


The next step is evaluation. There seem to be two routines for evaluating them all: tbval and tbcheck. Tbcheck verifies them with flying colors. However, tbval displays the message "kqk not installed; missing tablebase #0" and aborts the process.


Here are the files in C:\Chess Programs\Gaviota\gaviota-1.0-windows\gtb:


Volume in drive C is Windows
Volume Serial Number is 6086-FBB5

How can I successfully run tbval?


Thanks,


Dan


Any ideas on this or any leads to contact mballicora? BTW, relevant parts of Gaviota.ini.txt are:
"tb_path_1 = "C:\Chess Programs\Gaviota\gaviota-1.0-windows\gtb"
tb_path_2 = "gtb\"
