Summary: -s argument seems to be (newly) invalid Product: openZIM Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: trivial Priority: P5 Component: zimwriter AssignedTo: tommi@tntnet.org ReportedBy: emmanuel@engelhart.org CC: dev-l@openzim.org Estimated Hours: 0.0

In the trunk (r335) if you call zimwriterdb with -s 1024 (for example) you get the usage(): no zim file with be generated.

$/usr/local/bin/zimwriterdb -s 1024 --db "postgresql:dbname=wiki2b user=kiwix port=5432" titi create zim file from db usage: /usr/local/bin/zimwriterdb [options] output-filename ".zim" is appended to the output filename if not already given.

options: -s <number> specify chunk size for compression in kB (default 1024) --db <dburl> specify a db source (default: postgresql:dbname=zim, tntdb is used here) -Z <articlefile> create a fulltext index for specified article -S <words> search in zim file for articles -I <articlefile> article file for search -X <indexfile> use indexfile as full text search index -D <directory> create zim file from directory content

additional options for full text indexer: -T <file> trivial words file for full text index (a text file with words, which are not indexed) -M <number> memory factor (default 64, smaller factors reduce memory usage but makes indexer slower, try smaller values when you run out of memory) -t <filename> temporary file name (default zimwriter.tmp)

But if you call the same command line but without "-s 1024"... it works.
