TransformerConfigurationException: Could not load stylesheet

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am getting TransformerConfigurationException: Could not load stylesheet exception while creating a build.

Using Apache Ant version 1.6.5 compiled on June 2 2005.

The procedure for building :-

I am using a buildtool(buildtool.zip) provided by SAP for deploying a build.

When I extract the buildtool.zip, it has buildtoo\bin\build.xml, buildupdate.xml,earbuilder.xml,

derived.properties files.

buildTool\bin\templates\application.xsl,buildmodification.xml,conflicts.xsl,deployerfile.xsl & project.properties files.

Buildtool also have a lib dir containing buildtool.jar, jar4sap.jar, logging.jar,loggingStandard.jar,

SDMutil.jar,SLUtil.jar files.

recommended by SAP to include an inqmyxml.jar file in ant\lib folder.

Can any one tell me what could be the cause for this error?

Hi,

It looks like the XSLT processing fails because the XSLT processor used by the ant script does not 'understand' the URI where it gets its xsl namespace declarations. (http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform.)

You could change the xmlns URI in application.xsl into http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/ <b>or</b> you could try and set up a different transformation engine in your ant script.

Good luck,

Roelof

Hi,

I tried changing the xmlns URI to http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/. But it still <b>errors as</b>

javax.xml.transform.TransformerConfigurationException: Could not load stylesheet. org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The prefix

"xmlns" cannot be bound to any namespace explicitly; neither can the namespace f

or "xmlns" be bound to any prefix explicitly.

ant 1.5.2 solved my problem.

May be some version conflict. Thanks a lot.
