Yup, it was /usr/bin/perl, I have actually just upgraded to 5.8.4 (in
/usr/local/bin/perl) and this error now says its looking for

....  DTD file '/usr/local/bin/samples/personal.dtd'

I remember this being a problem on 10.2.8 as well

From the $XERCESCROOT/samples directory, this works ok

../bin/DOMCount ../samples/data/personal.xml

../samples/data/personal.xml: 906 ms (37 elems).

It seems that you have to define the relative path to personal.xml FROM the
bin directory, rather than the current directory. I don't though if this is
expected behaviour for xerces-c?

Thanks for your help jason
