docbook: Thread: entity not a function name error

I'm trying to validate my document and I'm getting errors like this:

nsgmls -s acpi-1.1.xml

      <!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD XML DocBook V4.2//EN"
	  "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd"
	  [(two entities defined)]
	  >
				  
nsgmls:<URL>http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/ent/iso-amsr.ent:19:18:E:
"X22DE" is not a function name
nsgmls:<URL>http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/ent/iso-amsr.ent:20:18:E:
"X22DF" is not a function name
nsgmls:<URL>http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/ent/iso-amsr.ent:21:18:E:
"X227C" is not a function name
nsgmls:<URL>http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/ent/iso-amsr.ent:22:18:E:
"X22A3" is not a function name

Does that look familiar to anyone? I have no idea what to do to fix them.

Hi there, Emma,

 : I'm trying to validate my document and I'm getting errors like this:
 :

You need to tell nsgmls to refer to the xml.dcl file when
validating XML.  Try this:

$ nsgmls -s /full/path/to/dssl-stylesheets/dtds/decls/xml.dcl acpi-1.1.xml

 :       <!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD XML DocBook V4.2//EN"
 : 	  "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd"

Enjoy,

Perfect, thanks!! For me it's:
nsgmls -s /usr/share/sgml/declaration/xml.dcl acpi-1.1.xml

It took me a few tries to figure out which the right file was, but I've
got it figured now.
