XML-Catalog and Format and Indent for RELAX NG

[fsteimke]

Hi,

we have written a grammar which extends docbook 5. It starts like this:

Code: Select all

default namespace db = "http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"  

include "http://docbook.org/xml/5.0/rng/docbookxi.rnc" {

...

}

Since we are behind a proxy in our enterprise network, i use a catalog file to redirect access to the included docbook schema file to my local file system.

Code: Select all

<rewriteURI uriStartString="http://docbook.org/xml/5.0/"

        rewritePrefix="file:///C:/Program%20Files/Oxygen%20XML%20Editor%2015/frameworks/docbook/5.0/"/> 

This work fine for validating, i. e. validating the schema file works as well as validating xml-documents conforming to this schema.

However, the format and indent applied to the schema file ends with a timeout: Connect to docbook.org:80 timed out (http://docbook.org/xml/5.0/rng/docbookxi.rnc).

Question is: how to configure catalog files so that format and indent will work correct?

Sincerely,
Frank Steimke

Hi,

The Format and Indent is probably trying to resolve the URL as a system ID.
Try adding to your XML catalog an entry that resolves the systemID:

Code: Select all

<rewriteSystem systemIdStartString="http://docbook.org/xml/5.0/"

    rewritePrefix="file:///C:/Program%20Files/Oxygen%20XML%20Editor%2015/frameworks/docbook/5.0/"/>

Adrian

Many Thanks Adrian,

it works. The many different options in catalog files and their use for different purposes always puzzels me.

Sincerely,
