Description

As reported by Michael Belenki on solr-user, pointing XPathEntityProcessor at XML files that use DTD "ENTITY" declarations causes XML parse errors of the form...

org.apache.solr.handler.dataimport.DataImportHandlerException: Parsing failed for xml, url:testdata.xml rows processed:0
...
Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: com.ctc.wstx.exc.WstxParsingException: Undeclared general entity "uuml"
...

...even when the entity is specifically declared.

Issue Links

• is broken by: SOLR-964 XPathEntityProcessor must ignore DOCTYPE definitions
• is part of: SOLR-3895 For several reasons, disabling the resolving of external entities within the Solr UpdateRequestHandler for XML would be good.
