Dear Mark,
Thanks for your quick reply.

I managed to finally install curator and everything seems to be alright -- 
I've only installed the BASIC and SRL packages. The SRL server is running at 
port 14810. Now, when I run the client (I'm using the CuratorClient.java code 
from the curator distribution directory: dist/client-examples/java),  I get 
the following error (all output shown below):

$  ./runclient.sh localhost 14810 test.txt
java -cp 
.:<path>/curator-1.0.7/dist/components/curator-interfaces.jar:<path>/curator-1.0.7/dist/lib/libthrift-0.8.0.jar:<path>/curator-1.0.7/dist/lib/logback-classic-0.9.17.jar:<path>/curator-1.0.7/dist/lib/logback-core-0.9.17.jar:<path>/curator-1.0.7/dist/lib/slf4j-api-1.5.8.jar
 -Xmx512m   CuratorClient   localhost   14810   test.txt

## read in text: Mr. Smith saw the dog with a telescope.

We are going to be calling the Curator with the following text:
Mr. Smith saw the dog with a telescope.

We are going to inspect the Curator for the available annotations:

org.apache.thrift.TApplicationException: Invalid method name: 
'describeAnnotations'
        at 
org.apache.thrift.TApplicationException.read(TApplicationException.java:108)

        at CuratorClient.main(CuratorClient.java:113)
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
        at CuratorClient.main(CuratorClient.java:119)


It seems there is some problem in the apache thrift method mapping. I tried 
both the thrift libraries : libthrift-0.8.0.jar, libthrift.jar but no luck.
Note that I modified the provided client to perform only the SRL annotations. 
I have attached the modified file, just in case you need it.

Thanks for your time.
best,
Meghana.
