Need help setting up custom Tiger file

[marlin-mixon]

Having issues trying to establish a custom Tiger file for Texas. I'm probably trying to make it too complicated.

My custom file is in ~/nominatim/texas-tiger-preprocessed.csv.tar.gz

I created a Dockerfile file that puts ~/nominatim/texas-tiger-preprocessed.csv.tar.gz into /app/tiger/texas-tiger-preprocessed.csv.tar.gz
(any easier way than setting up a Dockerfile?)

my RUN command:
sudo docker run -it
-e PBF_URL=https://download.geofabrik.de/north-america/us/texas-latest.osm.pbf
-e REPLICATION_URL=https://download.geofabrik.de/north-america/us/texas-updates/
-e IMPORT_US_POSTCODES=true
-e IMPORT_TIGER_ADDRESSES=/app/texas-tiger-preprocessed.csv.tar.gz
-e IMPORT_STYLE=full
-e NOMINATIM_PASSWORD=xxxxxxxxx
-p 8080:8080
-p 5432:5432
--name nominatim
-v nominatim-data:/var/lib/postgresql/14/main
nomghh

Ultimately it fails here:
2024-08-18 18:40:20: Using project directory: /nominatim
2024-08-18 18:40:26: Creating database
2024-08-18 18:40:29: Setting up country tables
2024-08-18 18:40:36: Importing OSM data file
2024-08-18 18:40:36: Configuration file 'IMPORT_STYLE' not found.
Directories searched: [PosixPath('/nominatim'), PosixPath('/usr/local/etc/nominatim')]

Configuration file 'IMPORT_STYLE' not found. looks more like the docker scripts added an error to the .env file. I think init.sh writes to the file. If possible inspect the file /nominatim/.env inside the container, maybe it's something obvious.

TIGER data can be added after an import, as a separate step, it doesn't have to be part of the original import (unlike wikipedia data).

I'd try that https://nominatim.org/release-docs/4.4/customize/Tiger/ Outside the Docker container the command would be

docker exec -it nominatim sudo -u nominatim nominatim add-data --tiger-data ...

in your case I think

docker exec -it nomghh sudo -u nominatim nominatim add-data --tiger-data /app/texas-tiger-preprocessed.csv.tar.gz
