Hmm. I haven't read the DocBook mini-HOWTO, but I did very recently install
the DocBook 4.1 XML support and got it working.
Maybe we should try this by narrowing it down to one variable at a time,
rather than adding every available version of DocBook to your
SGML_CATALOG_FILES variable all at once.
If you know the version of DocBook you're working with, can you display the
contents of the directory that contains its DTD and any subdirectories with
'ls -l'?
Can you display the contents of test.sgml for us, so we know which version
of DocBook you're working with?
(Apologies for the lengthy post...)
My directory structure looks like:

Wonderful, eh? No messy renaming scripts, I just had to put the 'ent'
directory in a subdirectory of the docbook-4.1 directory. And I didn't need
to link 'docbook.cat' to 'catalog', since I'm building up
SGML_CATALOG_FILES myself.
I wrote a little script that takes care of the dirty details of
SGML_CATALOG_FILES and jade; only two entries were needed in
SGML_CATALOG_FILES:
[dan@denials dan]$ cat `which dbxml`
#!/bin/bash
export
SGML_CATALOG_FILES=/usr/lib/xml/docbook-4.1/docbook.cat:/usr/doc/jade-1.2.1/
dsssl/catalog
jade -t sgml -i html -d
/usr/lib/sgml/stylesheets/nwalsh-modular/html/ldp.dsl
/usr/doc/jade-1.2.1/pubtext/xml.dcl $@
Note that I copied the 'ldp.dsl' stylesheet into the same directory as the
nwalsh-modular stylesheets. My installation of Jade is from the Red Hat 6.2
RPM; non-Red Hat users could probably just 'locate xml.dcl' and use the
corresponding path.

Hi,
I've set up doctools and am using doctools for the first time. I'll
spare the list the noise of a descritpion because I have a detailed
description and history of what I've done thus far and the error
messages I'm recieving at the following URL
http://www.jimweller.net/article.php?sid=26&mode=&order=0
I hope one of the more experience doctools users can shed some light on
this for me. Thx in advance.
Jim Weller
