    parsing web.xml fails, looking for doctype

    mwiles

      I'm trying to run the eclipse+lomboz+jboss servlet tutorial...

      on jboss 3.2.3... and lomboz 3.1 (wtp 0.7)

      This is my generated web.xml

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
      
      <web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd" version="2.4">

       <!ELEMENT form-error-page (#PCDATA)>
       -->
      
      </web-app>
      


      However, when I deploy the web app it gives me a parse error:
      14:31:02,589 ERROR [Digester] Parse Error at line 3 column 220: Document root element "web-app", must match DOCTYPE root "null".
      org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Document root element "web-app", must match DOCTYPE root "null".

      at org.apache.xerces.impl.dtd.XMLDTDValidator.handleStartElement(XMLDTDValidator.java:2850)


      The doctype is specified in the web-app node as a value, it looks like the xerces parser is still expecting it in xml file.

      I think I need to fix the parser so that it does not require a doc type?
