That’s exactly what I was going to suggest. (ie passing the “-o” and the file-name as separate parameters). Some time ago when I got Saxon 6.5.5 working from Ant that’s exactly what I had to do. Saxon 9 takes “-o:file-name”, ie the colon means that it is a single keyword, where Saxon 6 makes it two “-o file-name”.

This is the docbooks-apps list, isn't it? I use 2 for other parts, but for my main (quite large) docbook build I use 1. I use ant. HTH Peter, you could try giving "-o" and "myoutputfile.xml" as separate arguments. If you would build this with Go-Cd, it would require you to configure the build task arguments like this: ``` --some-other-arg -o myoutputfile.xml ``` and thus treating every line as a separate argument. Writing it like this would not work: ``` --some-other-arg -o myoutputfile.xml ``` You could also try wrapping `myoutputfile.xml` in quotes.
