Very Computer

Hello,

when trying to parse an XML-file file.xml using linux-jdk-1.3.1 and
xerces-1.4.0 I encounter a file-not-found-error from time to time.
The relevant part of the code looks like:

public class SAXParserDemo {
  ...
  // Instantiate a parser
  XMLReader parser =
          XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader(
              "org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser");
  ...
  // the String uri is the location of file.xml
  parser.parse(uri);
  ...

Quote:}

The usage is

  java SAXParserDemo <uri>

Now, if I enter

  java SAXParserDemo /path/to/nfs_mounted/file.xml

I get the error message

  **Parsing Fatal Error**
   Line: 0
   URI: null
   Message: File "contents.xml" not found.
  Error in parsing: Fatal Error encountered

Whereas, if I enter

  java SAXParserDemo file:///path/to/nfs_mounted/file.xml

everything works fine. Strangely, for the next few minutes, entering the
same command as above

  java SAXParserDemo /path/to/nfs_mounted/file.xml

works fine, too. But only for some minutes. Thereafter, I encounter the
error message again. Also, if I use

  java SAXParserDemo /path/to/local/file.xml

I get no error message. Using jdk-1.1.8, these problems don't appear at
all. Has anybody experienced a strange behaviour like this?

Best regards,

Ralph.

The problem is solved...

Don't know why, but this error was caused by a misconfigured
/compat/linux/etc/yp.conf file

very strange....
