Hi Arron Lacey, That particular cas consumer java class is a uimafit-paradigm implementation, and from my memory the CPE gui does not play well with Uimafit. I could be wrong - I never use the cpe anymore.
You might be able to get things working by changing line #23 in the .xml file from <implementationName>org.apache.ctakes.core.cc.XmiWriterCasConsumerCtakes</implementationName> To <implementationName>org.apache.uima.tools.components.XmiWriterCasConsumer</implementationName> As far as I know the ctakes version is the same as the uima version but with better output file naming and a uimafit framing. Again, I'm not certain that the problem is cpe : uimafit incompatibility. If somebody else out there knows better then please speak up. Good luck, Sean -----Original Message----- From: Arron Lacey [mailto:a.s.la...@swansea.ac.uk] Sent: Friday, January 20, 2017 11:13 AM To: dev@ctakes.apache.org Subject: Cannot load XMIWriterCasConsumer.xml with CPE.sh Hi - I am trying to use the CPI to output results using the CAS Consumer: __XmiWriterCasConsumer.xml but here is the error message I am getting: > org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceInitializationException > CausedBy: org.apache.uima.resource.ResourceConfigurationException > CausedBy: java.lang.Exception: The component XMI Writer CAS Consumer > cannot be created (Thread name: Thread-4) My setup is using: Collection Reader > desc/ctakes-core/desc/collection_reader/FilesInDirectoryCollectionReader.xml Analysis Engine > desc/ctakes-clinical-pipeline/desc/analysis_engine/AggregatePlaintextFastUMLSProcessor.xml CAS Consumer > desc/ctakes-core/desc/cas_consumer/__XmiWriterCasConsumer.xml I can get the normal XML writer to work, so I would like to ask what I need to do to my pipeline to use the XMI Writer? Thanks very much, Arron Lacey.
