Error while running corenlp.py

[tejal567]

While running corenlp.py, it is giving an error. Can you point out some specific thing that we may have missed out based on your instructions.

pexpect error comes when you don't have java installed. once check that

Try to copy the default.properties file from https://github.com/dasmith/stanford-corenlp-python to your project directory.

Hi SaujanyaReddy

Why I have this error while running corenlp.py File "corenlp.py", line 263, in nlp = StanfordCoreNLP() File "corenlp.py", line 169, in init self.corenlp = pexpect.spawn(start_corenlp) AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'spawn'

I have to execute this code on windows, where the java has been installed also I have copied the default.properties file from https://github.com/dasmith/stanford-corenlp-python but the same error message occurs. I'm wondering whether this code has been written for windows or any other Operating system ??? thanks

I think the error mentioned by @omarjnb is a different one. It occurs due to the fact that pexpect doesn't work on Windows (see https://github.com/pexpect/pexpect/issues/321). So actually you can't use that wrapper on Windows. However, if you don't need to import CoreNLP as a module into your Python program but only want to call it as a web service, you can use the official HTTP API provided by CoreNLP server (at least in the latest version 3.8.0). Check CoreNLP's documention for more information.

@n1try, great job helping people out man. I used your fix of adding the default.properties file and it worked but I am getting another error, think you can help?
