diphone studio / "SuperVP::Initialization failed" error

hello,

just downloaded and installed diphone on my mac osx 10.7.3.

there is an error regarding supervp appearing when diphone launches addan (when i load a sound in the “create dictionary from sound” popup and press ok). see at the bottom of the text block below. the error also happens when i click “validate” and “run” in the addan analysis window. what is the problem?

SuperVP::Initialization failed: please register an activation key by using -init_key_file Ircam_Activation_Key.txt Kernel return error 22

thanks, johannes

Dear Johannes,

We just coreected the activation scheme. Go ahead and generate a new activation code for Diphone and use that one instead.

hallo arshia, axel and charles,

thanks for your fast reply and help.

what i don´t understand now is: where to put the new activation code, that i just received from the forum.

the popup window, in which i entered the activation code after i installed diphone the first time, doesn´t automaticly reappear when i boot the programm.

even if i reinstall it. is there a trick?

thanks for your help,

johannes

  

  
Following internal discussion with Johannes we publish here 
  
the procedure that allows to install the new keys using the
  
supervp command line that comes with Diphone: 
  

  
1) Store the key file that was send in the email on your Desktop
  
2) start the application Terminal.app that you find in
  
/Applications/Utilities
  
3) in the Finder open /Applications/Diphon Studio 4.2/Kernels
  
4) drag and drop supervp (attention this needs to be supervp not
  
supervp.app) into the window of the Terminal.app
  
5) in the terminal type -init_key_file after the end of the supervp
  
command. Attention, you need to add a space after typing this
  
6) In the finder locate the key file you have stored under 1 and drag &
  
drop it into the terminal.
  
7) In the Terminal you should now see a single command line similar to
  

  
/Applications/Diphone\ Studio\ 4.2/Kernels/supervp -init_key_file
  
/Volumes/Users/roebel/Desktop/Ircam_Activation_Key.txt
  

  
There need to be spaces before and after the -init_key_file parameter
  

  
8) Hit return
