docbook: Thread: Errors from missing vars

I get this when trying to run openjade over a docbook xml document:

[root@crypt-600 /media/Code/thankugift/docs/system_documentation]# openjade -t 
xml -d $SGMLHOME/dsssl/docbook/html/ldp.dsl#html 
$SGMLHOME/dsssl/docbook/dtds/decls/xml.dcl ./docbook.xml
openjade:/usr/local/sgml/dsssl/docbook/html/ldp.dsl:359:18:E: reference to 
undefined variable "$table-width$"
openjade:/usr/local/sgml/dsssl/docbook/html/ldp.dsl:324:28:E: reference to 
undefined variable "$verbatim-line-by-line$"

It then spits out the contents of the xml doc.

I have found the lines in the ldp.dsl file that reference the variables and 
tried commenting them out, defining the variables myself, etc. but nothing 
worked.

Any help is appreciated,
Jacob

It seems ldp.dsl is referencing docbook but not finding them. Expound 
on your SGMLHOME layout and CATALOG environment.

The following is a copy of my $SGMLHOME/catalog file:

CATALOG "/usr/local/sgml/openjade-1.3.2/dsssl/catalog"
CATALOG "/usr/local/sgml/dsssl/docbook/catalog"
CATALOG "/usr/local/sgml/dtd3.1/catalog"
CATALOG "/usr/local/sgml/dtd4.1/catalog"  
CATALOG "/usr/local/sgml/dtd4.1.2/catalog"
SYSTEM "http://www.oasis-
open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd" "/usr/local/sgml/docbook/xml/docbookx.
dtd"

I have re-checked all these entries and they all point to valid paths. I even 
rebuilt the dtd's according to a different structure I found in a how-to but 
to no avail.

Looking at your catalog it seems that your 412 XML dtd is 
in /usr/local/sgml/docbook/xml..., but you don't have a catalog entry 
for its docbook.cat file (e.g. 
CATALOG "/usr/local/sgml/docbook/xml/docbookx/docbook.cat"). Is this 
correct?

You might look at http://www.jimweller.net/jim/dbxmlqs/index.html if 
you've not already.

Hi Jim,

That was the first how-to I followed and thank-you for it since it looks like 
you are the one that wrote it! If you don't already know some of the links are 
broken now. The dtd links have changed to .shtml, the ldp.dsl file is at 
http://en.tldp.org/authors/tools/ldp.dsl and the missing entity link is a 404. 
Also, since the dtd's are a bit older it got confusing for me whether or not I 
should try using the more uptodate ones as oasis urges you to.

Despite those hangs up I followed the intstructions down to the letter 
(mostly). I added the entry:

CATALOG "/usr/local/sgml/docbook/xml/docbook.cat"

But no difference. I think I'll have to try starting from scratch again :/

Thanks for your help,
Jacob

One other thing I thought I'd mention is that there is another how-to at 
http://www.linux.org/docs/ldp/howto/DocBook-OpenJade-SGML-XML-
HOWTO/requirements.html which is a bit more uptodate and links to a 
entities.tar.gz file that contains all the needed entities. This is where I 
finally found iso-grk4.gml.

There is also one done by IBM developerWorks (sgml only) at http://www-
106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-docbk.html.
