Derek Croxton [https://community.jboss.org/people/mataratones] created the discussion "XSLT failing - MalformedURLException: no protocol: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>" To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/771939#771939 -------------------------------------------------------------- I have a rather complicated XSLT that only works with the saxon transformer (the open source version).  Neither I nor my colleague could get it to work in XSLTaction, but I have it working fine in a standalone Java app.  So I wrote a custom action and just copied what I had in the standalone class.  Unfortunately, it fails with the error <code> MalformedURLException: no protocol: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> </code> There are quite a few cases of people asking about this error in different contexts, but none of the solutions has worked for me.  (Many center around setting a SystemID, which I tried.) What could be causing this problem in JBoss (developer studio) that isn't happening in a standalone Java app?
