Hi Matthew,

One of the updates that happened with ctakes 4.0 was the long-awaited update to 
use the current version of hypersql (hsqldb) used by components such as the 
dictionary lookup modules.  That update made all of the older dictionary 
databases obsolete as their format does not match that used by the current 
hsqldb.

Your best option is probably to create an updated '17 icd dictionary of your 
own.  Have a look at the wiki introduction to the dictionary creator gui:

Subject: ICD10 Dictionary Issue [EXTERNAL]

Hi cTAKES Maintainers,

My name is Matthew Vita, a healthcare software developer and one of the OpenEMR 
project administrators (this is a popular open source EHR mainly used outside 
of the US).

I am interested in integrating cTAKES with the EMR using Docker and a friendly 
web frontend. Fortunately, Dr. Timothy Miller has provided an excellent Docker 
pipeline solution that I have been using and enhancing.
However, I'm having an issue with ICD10 dictionary support. Introducing
ctakesicd2015 simply has no effect.

When observing the SNOMED/RXNORM dictionary, the structure is as follows:

- sno_rx_16ab.xml
- sno_rx_16ab
  - sno_rx_16ab.properties
  - sno_rx_16ab.script

However, when one pulls down the
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__sourceforge.net_p_ctakesresources_code_HEAD_tree_trunk_ctakes-2Dresources-2Dsnomed-2Drword-2Dhsqldb-2D2011ab_src_main_resources_org_apache_ctakes_dictionary_lookup_fast_ctakesicd2015&d=DwIBaQ&c=qS4goWBT7poplM69zy_3xhKwEW14JZMSdioCoppxeFU&r=fs67GvlGZstTpyIisCYNYmQCP6r0bcpKGd4f7d4gTao&m=bmYyxtv1U77r3grgB76TXATo01ayCe_Gu1kOvL5VvD8&s=XWhnGpcbuQvkPzwgSYg9uuRlzBBm_K_GwEprLsJ0QJk&e=
 , the structure is:

- ctakesicd2015.script
- ctakesicd2015.properties

cTAKES does not pick up these files. I wonder if it's because the 
ctakesicd2015.xml manifest is missing. Can anyone point me to a proper download 
of this file?

I very much appreciate the hard work behind this project and look forward to 
hearing back.

Thanks,
