I'm using the downloaded files from the article on XML Binding using Castor. But, when I execute the ViewAddressbook Java program, I get: org.exolab.castor.mapping.MappingException: Nested error: java.net.UnknownHostException: Castor.exolab.org I see a reference to this in my mapping file (which I downloaded). When I try to view this with my browser, using the URL http://castor.exolab.org/mapping.dtd I get errors in my Internet Explorer, V6, that says: Cannot have a DTD declaration outside of a DTD. Error processing resource 'http://castor.exolab.org/mapping.dtd'. Line 22, Position 11 So, the problem I am having is on your end (I think.)

Showing messages 1 through 4 of 4.

  The site URL has changed...
  
  Change your DTD reference from:
  <!DOCTYPE mapping PUBLIC "-//EXOLAB/Castor Object Mapping DTD Version 1.0//EN" "http://castor.exolab.org/mapping.dtd">
  
  to:
  
  <!DOCTYPE mapping PUBLIC "-//EXOLAB/Castor Mapping DTD Version 1.0//EN" "http://castor.org/mapping.dtd">
  
  Thanks

  you should avoid linking to an external DTD file.
  
  I think your problems occurs because you either don't have access thru you network to the Castor site or that the Castor site is just unavailable. (like today Jan 18 2006 at noon)
