Prasanna, Could you have the full stack trace? 1) You'll need to download the umls resources [1] Resources are required to run most of cTAKES. They are available for download from SourceForge: ctakes-resources-3.1.0.zip [2]. Please download, unzip and add/merge the contents to the existing resources directory. Follow the User or Developer Install Guide to direct you through the installation process. 2) Pass in your umls login info

I am new to using cTakes and lso UIMA. I want to use cTakes to identify semantics in the medical record. I have certain clarifications. I am able to load the AggregatePlaintextProcessor.xml and find semantic categories for disease, symptoms, drugs. I also want to use AggregatePlaintextUMLSProcessor.xml for finding the entities. But when I load the xml file I get this following exception: org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceInitializationException I also found that for using UMLS Terminology I need to register and get authentication for using the services. I want to know if the error is caused by this. Did I miss something here ? Also I am very much interested in contributing for documentation for cTakes. Can I please get some help on this. Regards, Prasanna.
