>. The newer NER should have in its name the Behavior... I agree, but the *2 module is a complete replacement for the current lookup. It does not (really) have any different behavior, just a different implementation and performance. We plan to swap out the old with the new in the next release

Harpreet, I had a closer look at your log file and it looks like you were actually trying to run it from Eclipse IDE? If so, just ensure that the resources do exist in the classpath. If it's within eclipse ide, the plugin should download and unpack the umls dictionaries automatically actually. (y

Harpreet, Just curious- is maven able to connect to the internet (maven central repositories)? i.e. did you have to set your ~/.m2/settings.xml with proxy info if behind a firewall? If it was an intermittent issue, you can try clearing out the local ~/.m2/repository? --Pei > -Original Messa
