[oXygen-user] Still having problems with XSD catalogs

[Sorin Ristache]

Hello John,

Looking at the catalog.xml file I see that all the elements are in no 
namespace. In an OASIS XML Catalog they must be in the 
"urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog" namespace. That means you 
have to place all the elements of your catalog in that namespace, for 
example by adding the 
xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog" attribute to the 
root element. Also you have to bind the xsi prefix to the XML Schema 
namespace, otherwise it is not a well-formed XML document.

Please look at the file 
[oXygen-install-folder]/frameworks/docbook/dtd/catalog.xml for an 
example catalog.


Best regards,
Sorin
