Hi, I'm trying to use XMLCatalogResolver as the ResourceResolver for a SchemaFactory when validating schemas. I've created a catalog file following the http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/entity/spec-2001-08-06.html. In the schemas that I check I have references to external schemas on the Internet, which is why I'm interested in keeping a local copy of those, and use a xml catalog to make the re-references when parsing schemas with SchemaFactory. It goes well for most of the referenced schemas, except when it comes to a particular schema: http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/REC-xmldsig-core-20020212/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd. For some reason the local copy I'm re-referencing to is not enough to make the schema validate. I'm getting the following error when SchemaFactory tries to parse it:
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: schema_reference.4: Failed to read schema document 'file:/path/to/xmldsig-core/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd', because 1) could not find the document; 2) the document could not be read; 3) the root element of the document is not <xsd:schema>. The schema is imported the following way from one of the schemas I use: <import namespace="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#" schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd"/> I'm suspecting the problem might have something to do with the namespace, which contains the '#' symbol? The xmldsig-core-schema does not import any schemas itself. I've tried using a rewrite like this: <rewriteSystem systemIdStartString="http://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/" rewritePrefix="file:///path/to/xmldsig-core/"/> and I've also tried a systemId: <system systemId="http://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd" uri="/path/to/xmldsig-core/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd"/> No matter how I seem to make the catalog I get the SAXParseException when SchemaFactory tries to parse the local xmldsig-core.schema file. All schemas are validated without any problems without the catalog. How is it possible to correct the catalog to solve the problem?
