Same issue here :( :(

Pexpect relies on some Unix-only function, and even using winpexpect the spawn function won't work. I'm giving up on this wrapper for Windows, just gonna write a server in Java that'll run alongside the Python app.

Can i run it on a virtual machine on VMware? I am facing the same problem and need a quick fix!

For windows users can use the codeline

self.corenlp = pexpect.popen_spawn.PopenSpawn(start_corenlp) instead of this

self.corenlp = pexpect.spawn(start_corenlp)
