I finally manged to bypass the problem after substituting the DOCTYPE in 
skinconf.xml:
<!DOCTYPE skinconfig PUBLIC "-//APACHE//DTD Skin Configuration V0.7-1//EN" 
"http://forrest.apache.org/dtd/skinconfig-v07-1.dtd";>

with

<!DOCTYPE skinconfig PUBLIC "-//APACHE//DTD Skin Configuration V0.7-1//EN" 
"C:\apache-forrest-0.7\main\webapp\resources\schema\dtd/skinconfig-v07-1.dtd">

That is, pointing to a local resource. It seems that somehow the xml-catalog 
does not really do its job here?
I am behind a firewall and I have set the proxy properties which makes it even 
more curious.

Hi all.

I just ran into a frustrating problem when trying to do a "forrest war" (or 
webapp) generation. This is forrest 0.7.

 

When the skinconf.xml file is to be processed I get:

 

load-project-props:

Processing C:\forrest\sdfii\src\documentation\skinconf.xml to 
C:\forrest\sdfii\build\tmp\no-doctype-project-skinconf.xml

Loading stylesheet 
C:\apache-forrest-0.7\main\webapp\resources\stylesheets\strip-doctype.xsl

Warning: catalogpath listing external catalogs will be ignored: Fatal Error! 
java.net.UnknownHostException: forrest.apache.org Cause: 
java.net.UnknownHostException: forrest.apache.org

Failed to process C:\forrest\sdfii\src\documentation\skinconf.xml

 

BUILD FAILED

C:\apache-forrest-0.7\main\forrest.build.xml:277: Fatal error during 
transformation

 

This does not happen when I do a "forrest site" or "forrest run".

I am behind a fire-wall but has set up the proxy-properties in my (project) 
forrest.properties (i.e. proxy.host, proxy.port, proxy.user and proxy.password)

Furthermore I was under the impression that forrest uses local DTD/Schemas (via 
XML catalogue) and I tried to increase the verbosity (to 10) but nothing 
changed.

I also checked the log4j.xml and tried to enable the ConsoleAppender but did  
not get any output at all.

 

I would like to get rid of the Warning message: "catalogpath listing external 
catalogs will be ignored" that I really don´t understand but have a feeling 
that it might be a cause of the problem.

 

Has anyone seen this type of problem before?

 

Regards

Lars Bjerges
