MFA LJSpeech.ipynb

mfa-ljspeech.ipynb

Thank you for your help with the MFA code. Unfortunately, the solution you suggested didn't work and I'm still experiencing the same error message. Do you have any other suggestions for how I could resolve this issue, or could it be an issue with how I'm embedding the code into the notebook?

Thanks for your time and assistance.

I have this err

The global MFA database server does not exist, initializing it first.
pg_ctl stdout: 
pg_ctl stderr: initdb: error: cannot be run as root
initdb: hint: Please log in (using, e.g., "su") as the (unprivileged) user that will own the server process.

I'm having the same issue:

The global MFA database server does not exist, initializing it first.
pg_ctl stdout:
pg_ctl stderr: initdb: error: cannot be run as root
initdb: hint: Please log in (using, e.g., "su") as the (unprivileged) user that will own the server process.

I did try this as suggested:

!adduser mfa
!usermod -aG sudo mfa
!su mfa

but it didn't work :( I'd appreciate any suggestions .
