> Key: MIFOS-4456

> Project: mifos
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Michael Vorburger
> Priority: Major
> Attachments:

> MIFOS-4456_HibernateIsTra--lskdmcnawiunvwae.txt

>
> Mifos should not require an Internet connection to start-up - it should run
> e.g. on an Internet disconnected LAN (with a mysql server on another
> reachable, or same, host - obviously).
> Currently if it cannot connect to the Internet, the attached exception occurs
> at start-up (and Mifos fails to start).
> The typical cause for Internet accesses leading to such problems, and likely
> the culprit behind this exception (from a pre-cursory look), are that certain
> third-party libraries erroneously fetch XML Schema (or DTD) from the Internet
> to validate some configuration files (here, Hibernate). What such library,
> and Mifos own' code, must do instead is configure the XML parser / validation
> to use a schema (DTD) packaged on the application classpath.
> In this case, the QuestionGroupResponse.hbm.xml has a <!DOCTYPE
> hibernate-configuration PUBLIC "-//Hibernate/Hibernate Configuration DTD
> 3.0//EN" "http://hibernate.org/dtd/hibernate-configuration-3.0.dtd";> which
> looks like it's causing this.
> This bad for two reasons:
> a) In some "enterprise" environments, intranet (LAN) applications runs behind
> firewalls which do not permit applications to access the outside full
> Internet. This may be less of a concern for the typical Mifos target client?
> b) For application start-up performance, fetching files from the internet is
> less than ideal - depending on the uplink. This may be quite relevant for
> Mifos deployments in certain environments?
