Peter Klügl commented on UIMA-3669:
-----------------------------------

The problem normally occurs when you try to open an xmiCAS file with the CAS Editor and there are annotation of types in that CAS, which are not covered by the type system that is used in the CAS Editor.

I assume that you mean manually annotate when you get this error, and not annotate using the rules, right? Or the annotated file is still open in the CAS Editor, which tries to refresh due to the changed file.
Please correct me if that is not true.

There are two ways to "solve" this problem:
- Open the xmiCAS with a type system that contains all types including com.uima.RutaTesting.Gather_Testing.EmplRelation. You can check, which type system was used in the CAS Editor by hovering over the title tab of the editor (which displays the name of the file). There should be the name and location of the type system that was applied.
Maybe you want to deactivate the preference: Menu->Window->Preferences->UIMA Cas Editor->Cas Editor Ide->Use the previously selected type system... Maybe you opened the file before with a different type system that has less types. There aare several ways how the type systemis selected, if the user was not asked to select one herself. Two other option are:Ruta selects the type system of last launched script in the same project. The project specifies a type system that should be used by default. 
- Ignore the missing types: The preference page of the CAS Editor has an option to load the xmi file leniently, ignoring annotation of missing types: Menu->Window->Preferences->UIMA Cas Editor->Annotation Editor->Load CAS leniently...
This option should only activated with care, because if you modify the file and then store it again, then the annoations of the missing types are gone for good.
