+1 on smarter entity resolver. That would fix it for everyone, whether they remember to fix the config files or not.
Also, will the public ID change too since it has "iBATIS.com" in it? Argh - Changing domains is a real hassle! Jeff Butler >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/07/05 3:59 PM >>> I only want to maintain one website for ibatis, both to avoid confusion and simplify deployment of the new site. One problem is that nobody will ever have access to the current ibatis.com <http://ibatis.com> hosting facilities except me. Unfortunately I found out (after I made the change) that apache.org<http://apache.org>doesn't like to point multiple URLs to the same site. So they set up a redirection script instead. So now, the plan is to slowly move everyone to use ibatis.apache.org<http://ibatis.apache.org>, and ibatis.com/.net/.org <http://ibatis.com/.net/.org> will simply become a redirection. Unfortunately the redirections will not help for DTD resolution. That said, Jeff is right, we should use the public ID, and originally it did. Unfortunately public IDs are easy to screw up (they're a nasty format), so I chose to use the system ID, because URLs are more foolproof. However, for future considerations, I suppose the public ID will be the way to go, or perhaps a smarter entity resolver all around (i.e. try the public ID first, then the system id for all both ibatis.com <http://ibatis.com> and ibatis.apache.org <http://ibatis.apache.org>).
