Re: [xsl] Strange intermittent exceptions from Xalan

[Johannes Döbler <jd at aztecrider dot com>]

Seems to be a problem with your Webserver when the xsl file is read via a 
http connection. Do you really need to access the XSL file via that sort of 
connection. Perhaps it is on the same machine as the application - in that 
case you just can read it locally (create a StreamSource and pass the file 
path to its constructor).
