Having problems with message search?
Hi
again,
I
just had a chat with some of my colleagues. We’ve seen this error message
before and it might have something to do with the way the DTD is set up. We can
suggest the following:
1)
In your xmetal.ini file, “change user_setting_mode” from “per-user”
to “default”. Then try configuring the specialization again
starting with Tools > Select Specialized DTD.
2)
If you send your DTD, MOD, and ENT files to the usual partner support email
address, our technical support team can help to get to the bottom of this more quickly.

XMetaL
Hi Alan,
Are you using the instructions from the XMetaL Help file
about setting up a DITA specialization? There are some steps that you did not
list below.
If yes, are you able to create specializations for other
DTDs?

Subject: [xmetal-dita] problem integrating specialization with XMetaL
Hi Folks,
I'm pulling my hair out over this one...
I've created a relatively simple DITA structural specialization, which
includes a (again simple) domain specialization. The specialization
package (shell dtd, .mod, .ent files) appear to be valid when tested
with oXygen 10.2.
I attempt to integrate the specialized DTD with XMetaL:
- In XMetaL, I choose Tools>Specialized DTD, select the base element
(topic), and specify a public ID. I close and restart XMetaL.
- I attempt to create a new document that conforms the specialized DTD.
File>New>Blank XML Document.
- I navigate to and select the specialized DTD in the XMetaL XAC folder.
XMetaL aborts the new document, with: "Error on line 2 of C:\Program
Files\XMetaL 5.5\Author\DITA\XACs\Foo\Foo_ditabase.dtd: A referenced
entity is already open."
I'm using XMetaL Author Enterprise 5.5 on Windows Vista. I've disabled
Vista UAC restrictions on the Program Files folder.
I would be grateful for any ideas about the possible cause of this
error. Thanks!
-Alan
