Subject: docbook2pdf only generates tex file
Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2003 06:30:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3E1ED7CE.2030503@nicklas.franken.de> (raw)

I want to generate pdf from a docbook file. I have installed the
latest packages.

I can generate HTML (though I had to hack the main catalog file to
have the James Clark//DTD DSSSL Style Sheet declaration) before this
would work.

When I call docbook2pdf, a tex file is generated, but nothing else
happens. This message appears (which also appears when I generate
HTML):

jade:(invalid location):E: invalid filename ""

I have traced the exection to here in backends/pdf:

$SGML_JADE -t tex -o ${SGML_FILE_NAME}.tex $SGML_ARGUMENTS
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then exit 1
fi

Clearly this problem causes jade to exist with an error code and this
program exits (with no information).

The call to jade looks like this:

jade -t tex -o dissertation.tex  -i print -d 
/usr/share/sgml/docbook/utils-0.6.12/docbook-utils.dsl#print -V 
paper-size=A4   /usr/share/sgml/xml.dcl 
/home/das/projects/dissertation/v2003/dissertation.xml

The indvidual files here all exist.

What could be going wrong?
