While working at a simple pipeline example I got this error: *java.lang.IllegalArgumentException*: *URI is not hierarchical*
*at* java.io.File.<init> (*File.java:420*) *at* org.apache.ctakes.lvg.resource.LvgCmdApiResourceImpl.load ( *LvgCmdApiResourceImpl.java:65*) I found that this issue has already been reported 4 years ago here https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CTAKES-445 I am on MacOS which the workaround patched proposed in that thread does not fix... And like the last comment in the thread says - the patch likely also does not work on linux. This seems to be quite a serious bug since both mac and linux would be serious development and production platforms for ctakes users. Is there no fix for this after 4 years?
