[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBAS-7974) Deployment of a WAR application fails, when WEB-INF/jboss-app.xml references non-existing or corrupted dtd

> I'm inclined to reopen this since I learned that this file is a portal 2.x oddity which shares the same name with jboss-app.xml from AS but actually has its own (for reasons unknown to me) unpublished DTD

I don't know the implementation details of portal applications but they must not use jboss-app.xml name for anything else than JBoss-specific EAR deployment descriptor.

> Why (again) is AS 5 forcing validation by default on xml files it has no knowledge about ?

The AS does assume that it's a JBoss deployment descriptor and consequently it assumes that it does know what the possible content will be and how it is structured.

> Is this what will happen for *any* xml file with a non-accessible DTD or is it only for those which names overlap with other xml types (in this case jboss-app.xml ?).

It will happen to all (or most of the) deployment descriptors. Again, I don't know how portals are deployed. JBoss should never ?>try to connect to a remote host to get to the DTD or XSD. All known schemas/dtds are registered in JBossEntityResolver (common-core project). XSD namespaces or DTD publicId are >mapped to the XSD/DTD files. During parsing when we see which namespace/publicId it is we know which xsd/dtd to use to >validate the xml. If the namespace/dtd is not registered then we use schemaLocation/systemId which may be a remote location. Since there is no mention of JBoss portal schemas/dtd in JBossEntityResolver, it is trying to use the specified systemId.

There is also deployers/metadata-deployer-jboss-beans.xml where we map schemas/dtds to metadata classes. There is also no mention of JBoss portal. So, I don't know how they do it.

i.e. even if we fix the reference to be jboss-app_2_6.dtd or even remove the DTD reference JBoss AS 5 still seems to complain about the file.

My point is that this situation (missing access to the DTD) should only be a warning, not an hard stop error.

IMO, no. Because the AS should know how to parse and validate its descriptors. If the DTD or XSD cannot be determined or found then something went wrong.
