-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey together,
I am having troubles with UIMA running a AE Descriptor or CPE Descriptor. When I try to run one of these with run configuriation "UIMA Run AE", "UIMA Run CPE" or "UIMA CAS Visual Debugger" I get the error: Caused by: org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceInitializationException: Initialization of annotator class "foo" failed. Where foo is the corresponding *.java file. The strange thing is: When i am going through the RoomNumberAnnotator example (http://uima.apache.org/doc-uima- annotator.html) everything works fine and compiles nicely. But when i try to import an UIMA project into eclipse or try to build another UIMA app i am running into the mentioned error. For example i try to import the following UIMA project (which is pretty minimal. It simply implements a POS tagger with stanford's pos tagger): theknetgroup.org/lesson4.zip This is what i do: 1. Set UIMA_HOME (export UIMA_HOME=/home/bin4ry/Tools/Dev/apache-uima 2. Open Eclipse set (once) UIMA_HOME: Windows --> Preferences -> Variables ... 3. New Project -> Java Project --> Name Lesson4 4. Right Click on this project --> properties --> UIMA CDE Property Page --> set Data Path to "/home/bin4ry/workspace/Lesson4" 5. Right Click on this project --> Add UIMA Nature 6. Drag&Drop the extracted files from lesson4.zip into the corresponding project folders (desc, src). 7. Right Click on this project --> Configure Build Path --> Libraries - --> Add Variable --> Select "UIMA_HOME" --> Extend ... --> Select uima-core.jar, uima- cpe.jar, uima-document-annotation.jar | Add External JARs and select the downloaded stanford-postagger.jar (http://nlp.stanford.edu/software/tagger.shtml#Download) - --- All the code must go to Lesson4/src/de.tudarmstadt.ukp.teaching.tutorial.lesson4/PosTagger.java but this is not of interest here therefore i leave it out. The corresponding descriptor file resides in Lesson4/desc/annotator/lesson4/PosTagger.xml. - --- 9. Open it with Component Descriptor Editor --> Type System --> remove all the listed types (if you view the source they are referred to by name not by location. This gives an error later on when running it with the debugger. The error states: "org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceInitializationException: An import could not be resolved. No xml file with name "desc.type.lesson4.Pos" was found in the class path or data path. ..." Maybe this is another hint to the whole problem?) --> add --> Import by location (Lesson4/desc/type/Sentence.xml & Token.xml as well as Lesson4/desc/type/lesson4/Pos.xml) 9. Run --> Run Configurations --> UIMA CAS Visual Debugger --> Classpath --> User Entries --> Add project --> Lesson4 | Add External JARs --> select stanford-postagger.jar --> Apply --> Run 10. Now I load the Descriptor xml file with Run --> Load AE and I browse to /home/bin4ry/workspace/Lesson4/desc/annotator/lesson4/PosTagger.xml 11. ERROR: org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceInitializationException: Initialization of annotator class "de.tudarmstadt.ukp.teaching.tutorial.lesson4.PosTagger" failed. What the heck i'm doing wrong? I tried this on Ubuntu 10.10 (even Win 7) with java-6-sun and java-6-openjdk etc. I know that UIMA is setup correctly since RoomNumberAnnotator works fine. There must be a little parameter configured wrong. Help please...this drives me crazy. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkzqOlwACgkQorpQUy811iRvOACeK3wYGdvkt/2f07pVb5ODsqHQ yLQAnRcyj2vjq8PEpfO/7smr9j4gyKkK =g03d -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
