To read XML file with DTD in SSIS

Hi,
My SISS package needs to read .mak file and store it in a sql tables.
I am receiving xml file content in mak file extension with DTD. So I couldn't read through XML source shows error DTD is prohibited in this document. After removing DTD by manually, the xml file has multiple outputs.
Please guide me how to remove DTD by coding and also I don't have xsd and xsl file for this only mak file.
Thanks.

Thanks Visakh for your answer.
I have tried in XML task which described in the thread. But I couldn't remove DTD file, I am getting following error,
[XML Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Program Files (x86)\FAST\Builder\bin\makefile.dtd'.".
As I said before I am receiving in .mak file extension. The beginning of file content is like below,
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE makefile SYSTEM "file:///C:/ProgramFiles
(x86)/FAST/Builder/bin/makefile.dtd"[
<!ENTITY % default-content-type "'text/html'">
<!ENTITY prjdir "G:\cdrom\Employees_2014_02">
<!ENTITY imgdir "G:\images\forms\gifs">
<!ENTITY foddir "G:\SOFT\FORMS CD\Feb14">
<!ENTITY ccdir "Y:\Content">
]>
<makefile>
&fsysdse;
<content-collection id="b1" title="Employers and Employees" filename="&ccdir;\Employees_2014_02.nfo" password=""> ....
After replace all variable (prjdir,imgdir,fodder,ccdir) into values specified in the entity tag, I removed above underlined part - so the xml file is ready without DTD part and able to use in
XML source. I have received 6 outputs from XML source.
My question is how to do this manual work in SSIS? It’s not only one file, so many files needs to updated SQL tables automatically so everything should be done by coding.
Please guide me in which way I can achieve this?
If you want to do this in SSIS
one way is to use Script Task to parse the file and remove the DTD part.

  • Validating generated XML file with DTD

    Hello all,
    my requirement is to test the XML file with its DTD.
    we are creating an XML file, before writing it on the application server , we need to test it with its DTD.
    i found one method set_validating in the interface if_ixml_parser , for validating XML file, but not getting an idea how to use it, like how to link the DTD to XML etc.
    if i try to use the above method am getting the following error:
    Unable to retrieve the external entity 'd:\dtdfile.dtd'.
    where 'd:\dtdfile.dtd' is the path of the DTD file included in the Doctype of the XML file.
    Please help me to solve this.
    Thx in advance.

    Hello,
    Did you find your answer ?
    I know how to validate an XML file an internal DTD, but not an external one... If you know, can you pelase advice ?
    If you didn't found yet, you need to use method get_reason() to get the description of the error.
    best regards,
    Gilles.

  • File Adapter : read XML file with data validation and file rejection ?

    Hello,
    In order to read a XML file with the file adapter, I have defined a XSD that I have imported to my project.
    Now the File Adapter reads the file correctly but it does not give an error when:
    - the data types are not valid. Ex: dateTime is expected in a node and a string is provided
    - the XML file has invalid attributes.
    How can I manage error handling for XML files ?
    Should I write my own Java XPath function to validate the file after is processed ? (here is an example for doing this : http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web/Web_Languages/XML/Q_21058568.html)
    Thanks.

    one option is to specify validateXML on the partnerlink (that describes the file adapter endpoint) such as shown here
    <partnerLinkBinding name="StarLoanService">
    <property name="wsdlLocation"> http://<hostname>:9700/orabpel/default/StarLoan/StarLoan?wsdl</property>
    <property name="validateXML">true</property>
    </partnerLinkBinding>

    I read files from the web, but there is a XML tag
    with the encoding attribute in the RSS file.If you are quite sure that you have an encoding attribute set to ISO-8859-1 then I expect that your RSS file has non-ISO-8859-1 character though I thought all bytes -128 to 127 were valid ISO-8859-1 characters!
    Many years ago I had a problem with an XML file with invalid characters. I wrote a simple filter (using FilterInputStream) that made sure that all the byes it processed were ASCII. My problem turned out to be characters with value zero which the Microsoft XML parser failed to process. It put the parser in an infinite loop!
    In the filter, as each byte is read you could write out the Hex value. That way you should be able to find the offending character(s).

    Please refer to the following sample code:
    XDocument doc = XDocument.Load("c:\data1.xml");
    List<Page> pages = new List<Page>();
    var pageElems = doc.Root.Elements("Page");
    foreach (var page in pageElems)

  • Reading xml file with sax parser: unknown protocol: c

    Hi,
    I've been googling around, and the best I can find is that the file name:
    File test = new File("lib/test/parseTest/validate-test.xml");should be a url:
    File test = new File("File://lib/test/parseTest/validate-test.xml");but I'm working on a linux machine and can't put "File://c:/pathToFile/file.xml"
    Also, I did some testing and I can read a small xml file with just a few elements, but on large complex files, I get that error.
    anyone ever run into this before?

    No, that's wrong. The parameter for that constructor is a file path (relative or absolute). Not a URL. You must have misunderstood whatever you read.
    but I'm working on a linux machine and can't put "File://c:/pathToFile/file.xml"What kind of a Linux machine is this which has a C drive? You must have misunderstood whoever told you to do that.

  • Read XML file with JSX

    I would like to be able to read an XML file in an InDesign script and create a new document by looping through its nodes and extracting content from them. I've never done this before and I can't seem to find the right information on how to do it. Can someone give me a snippet to get me started? Thanks!

    Read the "Integrating XML into JavaScript" chapter in "JavaScript Tools Guide".
    Below is a script I made a while ago. It can give you idea how to start writing your own script. It reads an xml-file, creates a new document from the template, relinks links listed in the xml-file comparing the width, height and resolution with data in the xml-file.

  • Xml file with DTD in jar file

    Dear all,
    I developed an application using NetBeans which lets you create XML files.
    The process of creating the new XML file, set the attribute Doctype of these files to the DTD (fileXML.dtd) present in the build / classes / Dtd that is loaded during implementation through:
    URL url=ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getResource("Dtd/fileXML.dtd");so the attribute Doctype XML files created will have the location of the DTD fileXML.dtd:
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <!DOCTYPE AGSet SYSTEM "file:/F:/Documents%20and%20Settings/ioXp/Desktop/mioProgramma/build/classes/Dtd/fileXML.dtd">
    Well. After completing the development of the program, I created the executable miaApplicazione.jar (in which he was pulled inside your full Buil, including build / dtd) by the option of NetBeans "Build Main Project."
    Double-clicking the file miaApplicazione.jar the program runs properly.
    The problem now is that when I create the XML file by mioProgramma.jar, they will refer to this DTD within miaApplicazione.jar and consequently when trying to open these files XML message appears:
    Protocol specified unknown. Error processing resource "jar:file:/F:/Documents%20and%20Settings/ioXP/...
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <!DOCTYPE AGSet SYSTEM "jar:file:/F:/Documents%20and%20Settings/ioXp/Desktop/miaApplicazione/...
    What is the solution for this problem?
    Hi
    ELVIO

    Hi swanelvis ,
    I have the same issue. Were you able to resolve this ?
    Thanks

  • XML validation with DTD in java 1.5 not supporting

    Hi,
    I am facing a problem regarding validation of xml file with DTD tag in it.
    I have disabled the parser through setValidating(false) method.
    xml file is not parsed in JRE 1.5.but it is parsed in JRE 1.6.
    Why this is showing such a behavior?
    I have used xerces 2.9.0,xml-api.jar and other jar regarding XML api but still it is giving error.
    please help me.
    please provide a jar file name or its issue resolution in jre 1.5 or 1.4.

    thanks for your prompt reply.
    I required that it should be completely disabled in jre 1.5(jdk1.5 or 1.4).
    I am using DOM Parsing.I have currently disabled with follwowing method,
    builderFactory.setValidating(false);
    builderFactory.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation",
         false);
         builderFactory.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/nonvalidating/load-dtd-grammar", false);
         builderFactory.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/nonvalidating/load-external-dtd",false);
         builderFactory.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/external-general-entities", false);
         builderFactory.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/external-parameter-entities", false);
         factory.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/nonvalidating/load-external-dtd", false);
    in 1.6 it is working fine but I required that i have to disabled it.but it is giving a error in jre1.5.
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.AbstractMethodError: javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory.setFeature(Ljava/lang/String;Z)V
    I just want to disable the parsing in jdk version 1.5 or 1.4
    thanks in advance

    I could not found what is wrong.
    Two things are wrong :
    1) Lack of namespace declaration
    2) You're trying to project repeating nodes into a single row
    This should work :

  • How To read an XML file with JDom

    I have read through some tutorials after installing JDom on how to read an existing XML file and I was confused by all of them. I simply want to open an XML file and read one of the node's content. Such as <username>john doe</username> this way I can compare values with what the user has entered as their username. I am not sure were to start and I was hoping someone could help me out.
    I know that this seems like an insecure way to store login information but after I master opening and writing XML files with JDom I am going to use AES to encrypt the XML files.

    Here is a test program for JDom and XPath use considering your XML file is named "test.xml" :import org.jdom.input.*;
    import org.jdom.xpath.*;
    public class JDomXPath {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
      SAXBuilder saxBuilder = new SAXBuilder("org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser");
      try {
       org.jdom.Document jdomDocument = saxBuilder.build("test.xml");
       org.jdom.Element usernameNode = (org.jdom.Element)XPath.selectSingleNode(jdomDocument, "//username");
       System.out.print(usernameNode.getText());
      } catch (Exception e) {
       e.printStackTrace();

  • XML validation with DTD

    Hi Team,
    I want to validate the XML content with DTD refered in the XML. I have problem now is my DTD are present in a jar file. How do I need to set systemid to the input source so that it works.
    <!DOCTYPE test SYSTEM "test.dtd">
    SAXParserFactory factory = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
    factory.setValidating(true);
    factory.setNamespaceAware(true);
    inputSource.setSystemId("path");
    SAXParser parser = factory.newSAXParser();
    XMLReader reader = parser.getXMLReader();
    reader.setErrorHandler(new XmlValidationErrorHandler());
    reader.parse(inputSource);
    Regards
    Richard

    i believe the best way to handle that would be to set the EntityResolver on the XMLReader to your own implementation which loads the DTD from the jar.
