Hi Samir, After selecting the collection reader the CAS Consumer prepopulates the output with "data/test/output/record_resolution.txt" I changed it to testdata and now it works like a charm. I had changed the input but didn't change the output. It would be more intuitive if the default text was "please change me" :-) Thus far, I'm pretty amazed at what this application does. Thanks again for your help, Samir. Regards, Paula -------------------- Paula, I think the error is related to the OutputFile parmeter, did you specify the path (for example D:\OutPutFiles) where the consumer will write the case ? or may be your input file for the collection reader is not set properly.

From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: Issue with Smoking Status component in CPE Date: Fri, 4 Oct 2013 13:03:04 -0400 I looked at the archives but didn't find anything specific to my issue. I executed the Smoking Status component via CPE using the SimulatedProdAggregateTAE and received an error, please see attached. Essentially states initiator of annotator class: org.apache.ctakes.smokingstatus.cc.RecordResolutionCasConsumer failed. A reference to C:\apache-ctakes-3.1.0\desc\ctakes-smoking-status\desc\cas_consumer\RecordResolutionCasConsumer.xml is in the error message. I have pasted the early part of the RecordResolutionCasConsumer file below that references where the failure occurred. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
