[jboss-user] [Tomcat, HTTPD, Servlets & JSP] - XML fragment inclusion in web.xml

Hi all, I'm trying to include an external xml fragment in my web.xml but that doesn' work (the related file is not found). Any help is appreciated. Follows a description of the problem. I'm working on JBoss 4.0.4 GA and the web container is Tomcat 5.5 This is my web.xml file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | | <!DOCTYPE web-app [ | <!ENTITY web-mlogistics SYSTEM "webmlogistics.xml"> | ]> | <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"> | | <context-param> | <param-name>javax.faces.CONFIG_FILES</param-name> | <param-value>/WEB-INF/faces-config-mLogistics.xml, /WEB-INF/faces-config-Fixnet.xml</param-value> | </context-param> | | &web-mlogistics; | | </web-app> The external file webmlogistics.xml is deployed into the WEB-INF folder. When the war (included into an ear file) is deployed the following error raises: [exec] 2007-10-26 12:10:08,421 [ScannerThread] FATAL org.apache.myfaces.shared_impl.webapp.webxml.WebXmlParser - Unable
