NAMESPACE_ERR

Hi.

I have just upgraded to the most recent version of UIMA and I'm not sure if
this is the reason for my problem.  I have a very simple JUnit test:

    @Test()
    public void testSimpleUIMAExample() throws Exception
    {
        String xmlInputDescriptor =
"W:/Development/Tools/apache-uima/examples/descriptors/tutorial/ex6/UimaMeetingDetectorTAE.xml";
        try
        {
            XMLInputSource in = new XMLInputSource(xmlInputDescriptor);
            ResourceSpecifier specifier = UIMAFramework.getXMLParser()
                    .parseResourceSpecifier(in);
            PipelineManager manager = new
PipelineManager(xmlInputDescriptor);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            log.error("Error creating analysis engine: " +
xmlInputDescriptor);
            e.printStackTrace();
            throw e;

        }
    }

which used to work but now fails here:

and I have no idea why.  I have not edited the tutorial descriptor.  And I
can't remember if this is the first time I've tested this since upgrading!

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Hi Maria -

I tried reproducing this but both my attempts in Java 5 and Java 6
worked, using JVMs from Sun and IBM.

I see from the error message below that your Java is using the "Crimson"
XML parser.  This page describes various XML parsers;
http://java.sun.com/webservices/jaxp/reference/faqs/index.html

In particular, it says:
As of March 2006, Apache has several Java parsers: Crimson, Xerces 1,
and Xerces 2. The reason is historical -- because Apache accepted two
donations from two different companies. IBM donated XML4J which became
Apache Xerces 1. Sun donated Project X which became Apache Crimson.
Xerces 2 is a new third parser which is a rewrite. It has goals such as
maintainability, modularity, and the implementation of certain features,
which neither of the previous original parsers has achieved. Xerces 2
was designed to fill the long-term needs of Apache projects going
forward. The current version of Xerces is 2.8.
 
I think that both Sun and IBM are now using Xerces 2 in their current
JVMs.  For instance, see
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/xml/jaxp/ReleaseNotes_150.html#parsing
for info on Sun's Java 5 version.

What version of Java are you using?

Hi Maria,

which JVM are you using?  Could you try a different JVM?
There are various problems with the XML parsers of some
JVMs.  If this is a Java 5 version, please try the most
recent Java 6, you may have more luck.

HTH,
Thilo
