cannot loadXmlDesign : no route to external

2004-09-23 14:21

I am new to JasperReports and am having a problem I thought there woudl be a solution to that others would be mentioning, but, I apparently am alone in this. I created a report using iReport, it runs fine from iReport. In my java code I am

 

JasperDesign jasperDesign = JasperManager.loadXmlDesign("reportfile.jrxml");

 

Note: I am behind a prive network.

 

When I execute this line it it sites there for about 30+ seconds and then comes back with

This seems odd to me. Somebody mentioned elsewhere in this formun that JasperReports (or Digester) would not be going out on the network to read DTDs but would read them from the JAR file, but, it doesn't appear this is the case.

 

Suggestions? Seems like this should be a FAQ but I don't see it as such. What am I missing?
