in the *.config files, you register processing modules as a list of 
class descriptions in the property

modules.classes.list

Each of these has an input format (e.g., TEXT), an output format (e.g., 
RAWMARYXML) and a locale (e.g., French).

Converting from format A to format B requires finding a sequence of 
steps to convert from A to ... to B.

In the simplest case, which I would always test first, you find a 
component that does the conversion from A to B directly; e.g., from TEXT 
to RAWMARYXML. Or it requires more than one module, e.g. from TEXT to 
TOKENS you need a first module that processes TEXT into (in this case) 
RAWMARYXML and then another module that converts RAWMARYXML into TOKENS.


The message you get indicates that no complete chain is found for the 
conversion you want to achieve.

In your case, given that you want to test the lia_phon integration, you 
could feed the input format of lia_phon and request its output format. 
If then it doesn't find it, try to understand why by reading carefully 
the debug log file, playing with your .config, etc.

Best,
Marc
