I built a custom UMLS and then attempted to index the output using bin/create_indexes.bat, but ran into an issue:
Exception in thread "main" java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\path\to\indices\meshtcrelaxed\postings (The system cannot find the path specified)

I built a custom UMLS and then attempted to index the output using
bin/create_indexes.bat
, but ran into an issue:This seems to be caused by the containing directory (in my case, 'meshtcrelaxed') not existing when instantiating a new RandomAccessFile class here: https://github.com/lhncbc/metamaplite/blob/8aae39319a4a4b40a013180bf6cde09b172c78a8/src/main/java/irutils/MappedMultiKeyIndexDiskBasedGeneration.java#L265
If I manually create the containing directory
C:\path\to\indices\meshtcrelaxed
and then re-run, I don't encounter this error.
