Your DocBook document starts with:

---
<!DOCTYPE article SYSTEM "/usr/share/docbook/docbookx.dtd">
---

I have no "/usr/share/docbook/docbookx.dtd" on my Linux box, therefore I 
was not able to open it!

It is highly recommended not to use <!DOCTYPE> like this. We highly 
recommend you to replace this by:

---
<!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN"
   "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd";>
---

which will ensure that your documents will be transportable.

Now, let's say that you *do not intend* to change your <!DOCTYPE>. In 
such case, you'll have to modify the way XXE detects documents as being 
DocBook.

[1] Edit <XXE_install_dir>/config/docbook/docbook.xxe using a text editor.

[2] In the following detection rule:

---
   <detect>
     <and>
       <rootElementNamespace xsi:nil="true" />
       <not>
         <dtdPublicId substring="true">Simplified</dtdPublicId>
       </not>
       <or>
        <dtdPublicId substring="true">DTD DocBook XML</dtdPublicId>
        <dtdPublicId substring="true">DTD DocBook EBNF</dtdPublicId>
        <dtdPublicId substring="true">DTD DocBook HTML Forms</dtdPublicId>
        <dtdPublicId substring="true">DTD DocBook MathML</dtdPublicId>
        <dtdPublicId substring="true">DTD DocBook SVG</dtdPublicId>
         <and>
            <schemaType xsi:nil="true" />
            <or>
              <rootElementLocalName>part</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>chapter</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>refentry</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>appendix</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>glossary</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>section</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>sect1</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>sect2</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>sect3</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>book</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>article</rootElementLocalName>
            </or>
         </and>
       </or>
     </and>
   </detect>
---

Comment out "<schemaType xsi:nil="true"/>", which gives you:

---
   <detect>
     <and>
       <rootElementNamespace xsi:nil="true" />
       <not>
         <dtdPublicId substring="true">Simplified</dtdPublicId>
       </not>
       <or>
        <dtdPublicId substring="true">DTD DocBook XML</dtdPublicId>
        <dtdPublicId substring="true">DTD DocBook EBNF</dtdPublicId>
        <dtdPublicId substring="true">DTD DocBook HTML Forms</dtdPublicId>
        <dtdPublicId substring="true">DTD DocBook MathML</dtdPublicId>
        <dtdPublicId substring="true">DTD DocBook SVG</dtdPublicId>
         <and>
            <!-- <schemaType xsi:nil="true" /> -->
            <or>
              <rootElementLocalName>part</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>chapter</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>refentry</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>appendix</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>glossary</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>section</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>sect1</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>sect2</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>sect3</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>book</rootElementLocalName>
              <rootElementLocalName>article</rootElementLocalName>
            </or>
         </and>
       </or>
     </and>
   </detect>

[3] Restart XXE.

All this is documented in 
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/docs/configure/ch06s06.html

There are cleaner ways to do this which does not require you to modify 
bundled configurations. This is described in 
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/docs/configure/ch04.html

XXE loads your file as well as (or as badly as, see PS: below) xsltproc 
does.

The only problem is that it is not detected as being DocBook and in such 
case, you do not benefit from high-level behaviors such as CSS, menus, 
toolbars, etc.

PS: The XML document you sent me is *severely invalid* (XXE displays a 
red icon at the bottom/left of its window). XXE cannot be confortable to 
use in such case. Please change:

---
<listitem>conna?tre les objectifs et les fonctionnalit?s des SGBD ; 
</listitem>
---

to:

---
<listitem><para>conna?tre les objectifs et les fonctionnalit?s des SGBD 
; </para></listitem>
---

Unlike XHTML <li>s, DocBook <listitem>s cannot directly contain text.
