I was doing something that I’ve done hundreds of times before and not had an issue with. I was running a docker exec command to open a shell in one of my containers.

If you’re trying to work with a basic Flask app and have scipy and/or numpy in your requirements.txt file, Dokku will not be able to install these when you try to push your repo to your deployment server.

Most of this is drawn from the CMU Sphinx iOS Demo repo: https://github.com/cmusphinx/pocketsphinx-ios-demo

This is going to be the first post in a short series about getting the CMU Sphinx stack up and running both on OS X and then subsequently on iOS. This first post is just going to detail getting the OS X setup sorted out. I’m working on Yosemite, but it should also work with Mountain Lion and Mavericks. The github repo linked below has some notes on OS X verision compatibility if you run into any issues.
