Re: [jetty-users] Way to start Jetty without requiring internet connection
With the caveat that this isn't a complete answer, just the first little piece of one...

XML Catalog(ue) files exist to solve this sort of thing.  They let you express "when you encounter a reference to this XML-related object, satisfy it by using the local copy stored here".  For a DTD (the case you're dealing with here), the XML catalog lets you identify "this XML-related object" either by the PUBLIC id or by the System ID (that www.eclipse.org URL) or both.

The other 90% of the answer would be:  how do you configure the right parts of Jetty to use an XML Catalogue?  That part I don't know, but my guess is your chances of getting an answer from folks who do know may improve if you state the version of Jetty you're using.

(Perhaps it may also be possible to hack a solution by editing that line and replacing the www.eclipse.org URL with a relative reference to a local copy, e.g. "./configure_9_3.dtd", but that's a bit cheesy).

Hi, we have a web application that is based on Jetty.   We would like it to be able to start
even if there is not an internet connection on the local system.

The configuration line attempts resolve www.eclipse.org on startup.   While putting in 
an IP address might take care of it not trying to resolve, that’s a bad strategy to deploy
on remote devices.     Is there a way to just put the .dtd configuration file it’s looking at
on the local drive and reference it there.   I tried it but it did not seem to work, using a file://
notation.

If there is a way please let me know the exact notation.

Here is the configuration line I’m referring to:

<!DOCTYPE Configure PUBLIC "-//Mort Bay Consulting//DTD Configure//EN" "http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/configure_9_3.dtd”>

Thanks
