To support disconnected development, for my project I've made a dtd
folder inside of my web-inf directory and placed the web-app_2_3.dtd
file inside this folder. Then I change the uri for the dtd on the
web.xml file from http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd to
dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd. The web.xml file doesn't show any validation
errors when I validate it, but the project will show as an error, and
the "Deployment Descriptor" piece of the J2EE project view goes away
when using the local dtd. Any ideas?
Here's the error messages that seem to go along with saving the change
to using the local dtd:
