[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - TestNG/SeamTest NPE in xml parsing

I am trying to Unit test entities using SeamTest and TestNG. I have a strange problem in running TestNG(SeamTest). When I am connected to internet running a ant test throws a exception shown below. test: | [testng] Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException | [testng] at org.testng.xml.Parser.parse(Parser.java:162) | [testng] at org.testng.TestNG.setTestSuites(TestNG.java:472) | [testng] at org.testng.TestNG.configure(TestNG.java:866) | [testng] at org.testng.TestNG.privateMain(TestNG.java:822) | [testng] at org.testng.TestNG.main(TestNG.java:802) | When I detach from internet it throws an exception(below) but continues to run tests. test: | [testng] java.net.UnknownHostException: hibernate.sourceforge.net | [testng] at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connect(PlainSocketImpl.java:177) | [testng] at java.net.Socket.connect(Socket.java:520) | [testng] at java.net.Socket.connect(Socket.java:470) | [testng] at sun.net.NetworkClient.doConnect(NetworkClient.java:157) | [testng] at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.openServer(HttpClient.java:387) | [testng] at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.openServer(HttpClient.java:522) | [testng] at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.<init>(HttpClient.java:231) | [testng] at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.New(HttpClient.java:304) | [testng] at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.New(HttpClient.java:321) | [testng] at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getNewHttpClient( | | I understand this is something to do with validating parsers, but both xerces/xml-api is not in my class path as I am using seam-gen based application.
