Which one?

Might be specifying a DTD other than 4.1... Make sure the first few
lines of your SGML source file look like this (minus any possible
entity declarations you might have):

  <!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V4.1//EN">
  <article>

or this:

  <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V4.1//EN">
  <book>

(and you properly close up the file with "</article>" or "</book>")
