Error with Rhasspy and MaryTTS: TtsException non-zero exit code 7

Help
1

Hello, I’m struggling to get the MaryTTS Docker image working for TTS, and would appreciate some guidance.

I set up MaryTTS as:
sudo docker run -d -p 59125:59125 --name marytts --restart unless-stopped synesthesiam/marytts:5.2 --voice cmu-slt-hsm
I can navigate to localhost:59125, and I see a web page for MaryTTS. However, when I set Rhasspy’s text-to-speech to MaryTTS with urL http://localhost:59125/process and prompt rhasspy to speak a test phrase (via the web portal), I get TtsException: Non-zero exit code: 7. The full traceback is below. Rhasspy works with other TTS choices.

Do you also run rhasspy as a docker container ? In that case localhost will not work depending on how you set it up.

Whoops, sorry, I was trying to abstract away from the local IP address of my machine. Assume I meant [ip address], not localhost.
Yes, I’m running Rhasspy in a container.

I also successfully curl-ed [ip_address]:59125/process from the Rhasspy container and got back a complaint about the request not being in the correct format. I think that indicates that the ability to reach the MaryTTS docker container is likely not the problem?

Try without /process in the url for Rhasspy. I can’t remember if I add that or not automatically.

You can also test with --network host in the docker run command.

[SOLVED]
I had somehow managed to start the MaryTTS server without selecting a voice – maybe i mistyped the --voice command when starting the docker container? Solved now, thanks.
