Relative URI "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD

[AnthonyGeorge]

am rewritting my web.xml file so that it points at a local web-app instead of the jboss web-app:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app SYSTEM '-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN' 'file:///C:/PanEuro-jboss-3.0.6/docs/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd'>

<--!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC '-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN' '

http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd'-->

<web-app>
<display-name>PanEuropean</display-name>
<listener>
<listener-class>DoubleHelix.PanEurope.ContextListener</listener-class>
</listener>



I am getting the following error :

11:25:37,679 ERROR [XmlFileLoader] Relative URI "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD
Web Application 2.3//EN"; can not be resolved without a document URI.:-1:2

Thanks for any help Tony

Try the following?

<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC 
 "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
 "[URL unfurl="true"]http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">[/URL]

Cheers, Neil

Fixed by experimentation :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE jboss-web PUBLIC "-//JBoss//DTD Web Application 2.3V2//EN" "file:///C:/PanEuro-jboss-3.0.6/docs/dtd/jboss-web_3_0.dtd">

The problem was rthat we wanted to use the local DTD file:///C:/PanEuro-jboss-3.0.6/docs/dtd/jboss-web_3_0.dtd".

The proper format is file:///C:/ for anyone else with this problem.
