I run BRAT with Cygwin on Windows 7 SP1 x64 Ultimate. To do so, I run in Cygwin:

mkdir brat
cd brat
wget http://weaver.nlplab.org/~brat/releases/brat-v1.3_Crunchy_Frog.tar.gz
tar xzf brat-v1.3_Crunchy_Frog.tar.gz
cd brat-v1.3_Crunchy_Frog
./install.sh -u
python standalone.py

At that point, BRAT is now be accessible through the web browser at http://127.0.0.1:8001.

It works fine when I install all the Cygwin packages, but it doesn't if I only perform the minimal Cygwin installation.

Which Cygwin packages does one need to install to run BRAT?

I know one has to install python 2:

However, it doesn't seem to be enough, as when I go to http://127.0.0.1:8001/ I get:

  • Oh, last I used it, I can't really deploy it properly and all the code looks extremely outdated =( I'm afraid it's going to be hard to know which package you'll need to deploy. – alvas Jan 03 '18 at 08:52
  • @Franck Dernoncourt - I am in the exact same situation here. How did you resolve it finally ? – Ananth Jun 17 '18 at 16:51
  • @Ananth I haven't found a solution. Interestingly, around 1.5 year ago, it was working fine. – Franck Dernoncourt Jun 17 '18 at 17:37
  • @ Franck Dernoncourt - I ended up installing Linux subsystem for windows on Windows 10 and followed the steps mentioned here. https://datascience.stackexchange.com/questions/17362/can-brat-be-installed-on-microsoft-windows . Brat now works fine – Ananth Jun 21 '18 at 17:30
