    Hi guys,

    I have just installed this and passed it over a DocBook file.  Everything proceeds according to plan until it tries to access the DocBook DTD (We have port 80 blocked and Internet Access is via passworded proxy).  Is there anyway we can get it to just continue if/when this event occurs or append a catalog to use?

    TLM

      in the eclipse 3.2 preferences is a preference page "Internet" whichs allows you to set the http proxy (including password, port etc.) used by all eclipse plugins.

        *nods* That is set however when executing the XSLT via the "Run" Scenario I get the following error:

        (4,-1) : External entity not found: "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.3/docbookx.dtd".

        The office firewall log shows that the computer is attempting a connection directly without using the proxy as specified by Eclipse.  Different versions of this error occur when using the different parsers.  With JDK 1.5 I just get a Java IO exception with 1.4 i get a more meaningful error which I tracked back to here.

          S.O.R.R.Y. - my fault :

          you found a bug/missing-feature !

          the xslt transformation is done by starting a separate java process - who does not know abouot the  http proxy you've set inside the eclipse java process.

          many thanks - i have filed this issue and will fix it as fast as possible.

          you can expect a new eclipsexslt version fixing this issue in the next weeks.

          many regards,

          lars
