http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8024 Can't include entities in web.xml Summary: Can't include entities in web.xml Product: Tomcat 4 Version: Unknown Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Entities with relative paths are not resolved in the web.xml. I.e. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_3.dtd" [ <!ENTITY webinc PUBLIC "webinc" "webinc.xml"> ] > <web-app> &webinc; fails with Exception initializing TldLocationsCache: XML parsing error on file /WEB- INF/web.xml: (line 6, col -1): Relative URI "webinc.xml"; can not be resolved without a base URI. The reason for this is that Digester.parse(File) is called in o.a.c.startup.Catalina - this method does not set the system id of the InputSource, so relative paths can't be resolved. I suggest using Digester.parse(InputSource) where you'd set *BOTH* the stream *AND* the system ID (in form of "file://" + file.getAbsolutePath()) properties of the input source to solve the problem. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
