    ParsingException occurs while parsing sample xacml.xml

    mcbeelen

      I'm getting started with working with XACML and I trying to work with JBoxx XACML for this. I found the "User Guide for JBoss XACML" and I'm working through it.

      I'm trying to get a PolicyDecisionPoint

      ClassLoader tcl = PolicyDecisionPointImpl.class.getClassLoader();
      InputStream is = tcl.getResourceAsStream("myJBossXACMLConfig.xml");
      PolicyDecisionPoint pdp = new JBossPDP(is);
      


      My configuration file looks like this:

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
      <jbosspdp xmlns="urn:jboss:xacml:2.0">
       <Policies>
       <Policy>
       <Location>xacml-policy.xml</Location>
       </Policy>
       </Policies>
       <Locators>
       <Locator Name="org.jboss.security.xacml.locators.JBossPolicySetLocator" />
       </Locators>
      </jbosspdp>


      The xacml-policy.xml file is an exact copy of the sample provided in the developers-guide Chapter 4 Web Binding.

      When I try to run my code to create the PDP an Exception is thrown:

      Caused by: org.jboss.security.xacml.sunxacml.ParsingException: couldn't create http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#anyURI attribute based on DOM node

      I'm using
      <dependency>
       <groupId>org.jboss.security</groupId>
       <artifactId>jboss-xacml</artifactId>
       <version>2.0.3</version>
      </dependency>
      


      Does any body know what is going wrong and how I can fix it?
      Any suggestions are kindly appreciated.
