Andreas, I think it's better to use the URI class to capture the location of your file, get an InputStream from that and then pass the InputStream to the parser rather than letting the parser find the file. The URI class will definitely work on different operating systems.
By the way, I would recommend that you use either JAXP or the latest SAX2 XMLReader. You appear to be using deprecated APIs. -Mark -----Original Message----- From: Andreas Wenger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 01, 2006 8:13 AM To: dom4j-user@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [dom4j-user] Error: Absolute URL required with null context Hi! First I have to say, that DOM4J is really great and I love it. I had never any problems with it! But now somebody reported a problem with my program under linux. The log: :26:46 ERROR com.xenoage.bp2k6.util.language.Language threw an exception: Absolute URL required with null context: data/config/language.xml Nested exception: Absolute URL required with null context: data/config/language.xml Stack Trace: org.dom4j.DocumentException: Absolute URL required with null context: data/config/language.xml Nested exception: Absolute URL required with null context: data/config/language.xml at org.dom4j.io.SAXReader.read(SAXReader.java:484) at org.dom4j.io.SAXReader.read(SAXReader.java:321) at com.xenoage.bp2k6.util.ConfigFile.<init>(ConfigFile.java:51) [...] Everything I do is: Document document = reader.read("data/config/language.xml"); It is called from the right path ("data/config/language.xml" really is in that subfolder). I could not find anything with Google's help... Any idea? Thanks!
