Thanks! -----Original Message----- From: Tommaso Teofili [mailto:tommaso.teof...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, April 29, 2011 12:12 PM To: user@uima.apache.org Subject: Re: Sandbox help - every descriptor throws ResourceInitializationException from the CAS Visual Debugger Hi Britt, what I think you miss is adding the sandbox jars to the CAS Visual Debugger launcher classpath. >From Eclipse open Run-> Run Configurations -> go to the CAS Visual Debugger >launcher you're using. You'll probably find uimaj-examples under the "project" selector, you just may change this to select the sandbox project you want to try or go to the Classpath tab and add all the sandbox jars (you may need to run a mvn install first to generate them) you want to use to the User Entries list.
