Greetings, I just moved an EJB application (an EAR file deployed on Jboss) to a machine on a VLAN without http access to the exterior. The application would not deploy, giving a "no route to host" error in the java stack trace. It seems that the server actually goes and looks for the DTD at Sun , i.e due to the lack of http access: External entity not found: "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/ejb-jar_1_1.dtd".:-1:3 My question: Does this always happen, or might it be specific to Jboss? How can I stop this behavior? Can I include local copies of this or other dtds with the archives? Frankly, it seems like a secutiry risk to have jar/war/ear potentially going to pick up dtds from external urls.
