Hi,
IT 3754 <
https://glassfish.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3754> may
explain the confusion here.
In most cases, "asadmin add-resources <relative path>" is executed on
the server side.
The logic goes like this:
1. check if file exists
2. if true, then create the "canonical" path
3. if false, then send the relative-path/xml-file. Since server's
current directory is <domain-root>/config, then it will try to find the
xml file from this directory.
In Vince case, the file exists, then asadmin creates the "canonical"
path and executes the command. "add-resources" catches that it's an
invalid file and throws the message: "DOCTYPE is not present in xml".
I think the manpage needs to be corrected.
HTH,
Jane
