Re: [docbook-apps] Error when doing cross document linking

The error message is coming from the line in xref.xsl that opens the olinkdb.xml database file. For some reason, it is unable to open and parse that document, but it does not give any indication of why. If the path is correct and the file is readable, then the likely cause is parsing problems. Can you open the olinkdb.xml file in an XML editor to see if it is well-formed? Are the target files that the database opens readable and well-formed? Can you show the contents of your olinkdb.xml file?

Hi all,

I have few documents and I am trying to implement cross document linking between documents (HTML for now).

My environment is Java, Eclipse, Ant and the Apache XSLT and FOP stuff.

I get the following error which is causing my links to come as ?????

        [xslt] Loading stylesheet D:\Projects\docbook-xsl\docbook-xsl-1.78.0\html\docbook.xsl
        [xslt] D:\Projects\docbook-xsl\docbook-xsl-1.78.0\html\xref.xsl:1095:59:Warning! Can not load requested doc: Programmer's Error! putDocumentInCache found reparse of doc: file:///D:/Projects/6.1.2-18Feb/applications/documentation/src/main/documentation/olinkdb.xml
        [xslt] D:\Projects\docbook-xsl\docbook-xsl-1.78.0\html\xref.xsl:1117:22: Warning! Error: unresolved olink: targetdoc/targetptr = 'userguide/chapter.server.installation'.

I have double checked and all the paths are correct. Do you have an idea what might be the problem?

I have followed the instructions found here - http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/Olinking.html

Thank you,
