Re^5: DBI and Win32::OLE Conflict?

I was addressing a pretty limited concern - whether the files really were identical or just appeared that way. I took a minute and read over your error log again. Xerces SAX parser is throwing the error on not being able to resolve the QBXML DTD. I'm guessing that it's attempting to find a file and failing.

I would suggest two things - download Filemon from http://www.sysinternals.com to see if a DTD file is being searched for and not found. Also consider altering your DOCTYPE declaration line - just remove it. Or consider specifying your QuickBasic DTD explicitly with a SYSTEM and a filepath to the DTD.

Did DBI::CSV change the current path? $ENV{PATH}? Anything relating to what the current directory is and how to find other files? Are you developing these in different directories? Have you gone to http://xml.apache.org to see what code the SAX parser is executing when it throws that error? These are all avenues for investigation.

Thank you for your help - I really do appreciate you wasting your time on this. Unfortunately, after taking Friday night and all day Saturday to work on this, I am unable to figure out what's wrong, much less solve the problem. Maybe in a few years I'll be smart enough, but for now I'll just give up and do by hand what the program should have been able to do much faster.	[reply]

Ah well. You can't win them all. My money's still on the Xerces SAX parser - if you can remove QB's copy of Xerces and swap in your own (instrumented with various debugging checks) I think you'll get there. Fun Fun Fun in the Fluffy Chair	[reply]
