Thanks Craig.
I do have places where relative references do work, just not in WEB-INF/web.xml with
struts.jar 1.1. It throws an exception in ActionServlet.initServlet when SAX
exception when parsing.
Here's what I have:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1?
!DOCTYPE webapp PUBLIC -//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN
http://java.sun.com/struts/dtds/web-app_2_3.dtd; [
!ENTITY INFO_VALUES SYSTEM conf/info.xml
%INFO_VALUES;
]
Thoughts?
Thanks again,

When moving to the latest struts.jar release, there is a Digester parsing exception
that is introduced when the base URI is not defined. This was not a problem before
the latest release, I'm hoping to continue to use relative file paths due to varied
development environments and excessive entity includes. Suggestions?
was:
!DOCTYPE web-app SYSTEM conf/common/web-app_2_3.dtd ...
now requires
!DOCTYPE web-app SYSTEM file://...full_path.../conf/common/web-app_2_3.dtd ...
or
!DOCTYPE web-app SYSTEM http://web-app_2_3.dtd; ...

You should be using the standard DOCTYPE for the deployment descriptor DTD:
!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC -//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web
Application 2.3//EN
http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd;
and the corresponding standard DOCTYPE for struts-config.xml files:
!DOCTYPE struts-config PUBLIC -//Apache Software Foundation//DTD
Struts Configuration 1.2//EN
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/dtds/struts-config_1_2.dtd;
The parsing code in Struts (and Tomcat, if you're using that) recognizes
the public identifiers and loads its own internal copies of the DTDs, so
it works without accessing the Internet. And, I've got cases where
relative references in web.xml and struts-config.xml files work fine
when doing this.
