I downloaded the Stanford parser 2.0.5 and use Demo2.java source code that is in the package, but After I compile and run the program it has many errors. A part of my program is:

public class testStanfordParser {
/** Usage: ParserDemo2 [[grammar] textFile] */
  public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
    String grammar = args.length > 0 ? args[0] : "edu/stanford/nlp/models/lexparser/englishPCFG.ser.gz";
    String[] options = { "-maxLength", "80", "-retainTmpSubcategories" };
    LexicalizedParser lp = LexicalizedParser.loadModel(grammar, options);
    TreebankLanguagePack tlp = new PennTreebankLanguagePack();
    GrammaticalStructureFactory gsf = tlp.grammaticalStructureFactory();
 ...

the errors are:

Loading parser from serialized file edu/stanford/nlp/models/lexparser/englishPCFG.ser.gz java.io.IOException: Unable to resolve edu/stanford/nlp/models/lexparser/englishPCFG.ser.gz" as either class path, filename or URL

All grammars are located in the included models jar. Is the "stanford-parser-2.0.5-models.jar" in the execution directory or classpath?
