[quickbook] failed to load external entity?

Hi, I was trying to use quickbook. Jamfile.v2 looks like using quickbook ; xml mybook : mybook.qbk ; boostbook standalone : mybook : ; And in user-config.jam: using boostbook : ../../boostbook/xsl : ../../boostbook/dtd ; But here are the error messages: warning: Python location is not configured warning: the Boost.Python library won't be built Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support disabled. Please refer to the Boost.Regex documentation for more information (and if you don't know what ICU is then you probably don't need it). ...patience... ...found 976 targets... ...updating 1 target... xslt-xsltproc-dir html/HTML.manifest warning: failed to load external entity "http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/ xsl/current/html/chunk.xsl" compilation error: file /cygdrive/e/Programs/VC++/Boost/tools/boostbook/xsl/html .xsl line 8 element import xsl:import : unable to load http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/h tml/chunk.xsl warning: failed to load external entity "http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/ xsl/current/html/chunk-common.xsl" compilation error: file /cygdrive/e/Programs/VC++/Boost/tools/boostbook/xsl/chun k-common.xsl line 7 element import xsl:import : unable to load http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/h tml/chunk-common.xsl warning: failed to load external entity "http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/ xsl/current/lib/lib.xsl" <snip> My network is working fine, does somebody know why it says can't load those URLs?

This question would have been better on the boost-docs list, but that asside, I've seen similar messages when my "using boostbook" paths were wrong and the XSL translators couldn't be found (downloading the online versions appears not to ever work which is why you get that error message, maybe they keep changing the URL?). So... double check your paths, make sure they're in the right order, and maybe they have to absolute paths? John.

i ran into probably the same issue (actually, the <snip> part is important, as the last lines probably tell you that your catalog.xml produced those errors). so try deleting catalog.xml from the subdirectory the error message tells you it's located at (might be something like ./bin/gcc/debug/ if gcc is your compiler) -- it will then be automatically regenerated by boostbook when you run bjam --v2 again. (catalog.xml is a file that points to locations of xsl and dtd files required by boostbook, and when regenerated, it will use the paths you provided in user-config.jam -- that's why it's troubled if locations were changed, but catalog.xml wasn't deleted to indicate it needs regenerating) regards, bernhard ps: you're a SoCer too, right?
