Yes, xml-commons-resolver-1.1.jar and CatalogManager.properties are on the 
classpath when I run XEP. 

What I'm finding is that XML catalogs using xml-commons-resolver works fine 
for everything except XEP. I tried the same setup on a local Linux machine 
that has had XML catalogs properly working with xml-commons-resolver for 
years. I even forced XEP to use the libs that ship with XEP (using -cp). Same 
results. Specifically, I have found that 

-Dcom.renderx.sax.entityresolver=org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver 
-Dcom.renderx.jaxp.uriresolver=org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver

do not work under any circumstance that I have been able to create here 
locally. It is still possible that the error is mine, but it is looking like 
the bug is with XEP. I am using xep from xep-4.6-20060623-personal.zip

Can anyone state from their own experience that XEP does indeed properly use 
xml-commons-resolver?

Thanks,
