.ebg file empty and no error

[xals]

I am following the issue #1846. I had the same error while running osrm-prepare (), and watching the disc usage graph, I saw the free space eaten, but osrm-extract exited with code 0, resulting in osrm-prepare to be executed but with an empty .ebg file.

I think osrm-extract can detect if it can't write in this file and exit with a non-zero code.

Yes you are correct. Already tracked in #1682. Closing as duplicate.

We're in the progress of cleaning up these little annoyances in osrm-backend, but it takes its time.

Thanks for reporting!

Ok, I didn't find any related bugs, thanks for the reference.
