Looks like you are using an old version. The 2.4.0 version works better.
I suggest that you try that one instead.
In this version it asks you to point it to a type system if none for the XMI
file can be found in the configured location (default is TypeSystem.xml
in the root of the project).
Hope this helps,

I've been using UIMA for years and years, but I am completely stumped
trying to run the CAS Editor. Is anyone expert enough to provide an
actual step-by-step guide for getting the CAS Editor to appear, given
an existing type system and annotated XMI?
I have tried everything in the instructions, but keep getting error
messages. First, missing type system. After RENAMING and putting
in the root of project, complaint that document is not in a corpus
folder. Explanation how to create a corpus folder is vague and
confusing.
I guess I'm hoping for STEP BY STEP instructions of exactly what to
click and type in Eclipse, and what should happen at each stage, as
far as expected output. Discouragingly, nothing I try looks like the
pictures
in the UIMA Tools Guide and Reference.
What I'm really hoping for are instructions so clear that 'even
faculty' can
follow them to add annotations to documents, provided the documents and
type system are already set up. :)
