Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to ANN: XSLT support added to AOLServer/nsxml

Yon - thanks for the taking the effort to look into this.

Your results intrigued me, so I did some more testing on my side.

For reference I have a linux and a solaris system. I originally encountered the problem on solaris. I have libxml 2.3.11 and libxslt 0.12.0 installed on both systems. I installed on both platforms via:

  • ./configure
  • make
  • make install
with no switches.

I will include the test files I used in the following messages.

When I run:
xsltproc people.xsl people.xml
on either platform libxslt goes out and retrieves the imported stylesheet and generates the correct output. However when I try to do the same thing from within AOLserver it works on Linux.

However on the solaris box I get the same output I would have gotten if libxslt failed to find the stylesheet.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Steve
