Hi,
I’m getting the following message when starting Weblogic 8.1:
“Deployment descriptor “web.xml” is malformed. Check against the DTD: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element ‘web-app’. (line 6, column 52).”
I’ve looked around the forum, but didn’t find a solution. The first few lines of my web.xml look like this:
<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<web-app version=”2.4″
xmlns=”http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee”
xmlns:xsi=”http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance”
xsi:schemaLocation=”http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd”>I didn’t change the file manually. This is what eclipse generated with MyEclipse. Can you please help me out with this?
Thanks!
Emery
Emery, can you paste the first 10 lines of the file? I’m most interested if you have a web-app root node or not.
Sorry, I was away for a few days:
<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<web-app version=”2.4″
xmlns=”http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee”
xmlns:xsi=”http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance”
xsi:schemaLocation=”http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd”>
<servlet>
<display-name>xxx</display-name>
<servlet-name>xxx</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>com.xxx.servlet.xxx</servlet-class>I’ve replaced the actual servlet with x’s.
Thanks for the help
WebLogic 8.1 doesn’t seem to support the J2EE 1.4 spec, which is required to make sense of that deployment descriptor you are using:
