OSWF - External Entity Resolution

Hi,

I'm using OWSF 2.5, and got the following error when agregate an External
Entity to my workflow definition xml:

2003-05-16 12:38:18,390 [ApplicationServerThread] FATAL

I guess that this error is because Crimson can't get the roles.ent file,
which one is in the same directory as the workflow definition xml file.

Following is an extract of my workflow definition file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE workflow PUBLIC "-//OpenSymphony Group//DTD OSWorkflow 2.1//EN"
"http://www.opensymphony.com/osworkflow/workflow.dtd" [
<!ENTITY % roles SYSTEM "roles.ent">
%roles;
]>
<workflow>
<initial-actions>
<action id="1" name="Iniciar Workflow">
<restrict-to>
<conditions type="AND">
<condition type="class">
<arg
name="class.name">com.valhallaproject.sao.commons.workflow.UserRoleCondition
</arg>
<arg name="role">&rol_administrador;</arg>
</condition>
</conditions>
</restrict-to>
<results>
<unconditional-result old-status="Finalizado" owner="" status="En curso"
step="99"/>
</results>
</action>
</initial-actions>
....
</workflow>

Any clue?

Thanks

Edgar
