I don't think so. There is almost no difference between the Saxon 9 included in the distribution of XXE v4.8 and the Saxon 9 included in the distribution of XXE v4.7. My guess is that the problem comes from the following change in XMLmind XML Editor v4.8: Excerpts from http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/changes.html: --- It's now possible to use Options|Install Add-ons, Uninstall tab, to remove one or more of the four bundled configurations: "XHTML configuration", "DocBook configuration", "DocBook v5+ configuration", "DITA configuration". --- This new feature have of course some impacts of the contents of the $XXE_INSTALL_DIR/addon/ directory. I think that you need to replace: export XML_CATALOG_FILES=$XXE_INSTALL_DIR/addon/config/catalog.xml by: export XML_CATALOG_FILES=$XXE_INSTALL_DIR/addon/config/catalog.xml;$XXE_INSTALL_DIR/addon/config/docbook/catalog.xml;$XXE_INSTALL_DIR/addon/config/dita/catalog.xml;$XXE_INSTALL_DIR/addon/config/xhtml/catalog.xml Take a look at $XXE_INSTALL_DIR/bin/xmltool for another example of use of XXE's XML catalogs by a command-line tool. -- XMLmind XML Editor Support List [email protected] http://www.xmlmind.com/mailman/listinfo/xmleditor-support
