Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: Trouble with Saxon/Xalan extensions

[Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com>]

/ Holger Rauch <Holger.Rauch@heitec.de> was heard to say:
[...]

Are you sure you're using 6.2.1? This sounds like the sort of error that
I got from 6.1 or 6.2 (I forget which).

There are some java -D options for proxy settings, but that's not the
cause.

Are you putting docbook/extensions/saxon61.jar on your CLASSPATH?

| XSLT Error (javax.xml.transform.TransformerException): For extension

Ah, I think that's the problem. Look in docbook/extensions and read
the RELEASE-NOTES.
