Connecting GATE gazzeetteer_lkb to geonames remote repository

Question

I am trying to configure gazzetteer_lkb with geonames.com remote repository so I can perform global location lookups.

I need help to correctly configure the config.ttl and query.txt files

Config.ttl needs to be a valid Turtle RDF format?

Also I am getting errors when loading the sample dictionary using below config.ttl:

# Gazetteer_LKB dictionary configuration file.
#
# %temp% will be automatically replaced with the TEMP folder for the current user
# %relpath% will be replaced with the path to the dictionary folder.
#
@prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#>.
@prefix rep: <http://www.openrdf.org/config/repository#>.
@prefix hr: <http://www.openrdf.org/config/repository/http#>.
@prefix lkbg: <http://www.ontotext.com/lkb_gazetteer#>.

# The dictionary will be loaded from a remote Sesame HTTP repository. 
# Its configuration follows. See the Sesame configuration for detals.

   #(optional) Authentication
   #If you are connecting to a repository guarded by HTTP basic authentication,
   #supply credentials as follows:

   #lkbg:password "<password>" ;

   # Whether the gazetteer will cache the dictionary after loading it from the data source.   
   # Put "enabled" to enable the cache, any other values will disable it.
   lkbg:caching "enabled" .

   # The cache will be automatically reloaded on initialization if the configuration have been    
   # modified since the last initialization. However, changes in the underlying datastore 
   # can't be detected and the cache will not be automatically reloaded in that case. 
   # Thus, if you expect changes in your datastore, disable the cache, or make use
   # of the modifications API.

Has anyone successfully connected geonames to a gate app?

Many thanks
