I am trying to initialize workflow with spring. For that i have added workflow\_2.8.2.jar and as for my workflow descriptor i am simply using my localhost to store its dtd.
Now, when i am trying to initialize workflow it gives me an error which seen confusing to me right now.

```
    "com.opensymphony.workflow.FactoryException: Error in workflow descriptor: file:/home/fhl04/development/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp0/wtpwebapps/TestingPersistenceUsingSpring/WEB-INF/classes/descriptor.xml: root cause: java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: http://opensymphony.com/osworkflow/workflow_2_8.dtd"

```

and even i am not using "<http://opensymphony.com/osworkflow/workflow_2_8.dtd>" as it is now available in my localhost.

And just to add more information the code runs perfect if it is not been initialized by spring(osworkflow\_2.7.0.jar used).

I dont know where i am going wrong and what am i missing..?
Any help is much appreciated,
Thanks in advance.
