Thanks for the info. Im not sure that I need to fill out a Bugzilla report since I have investigated further and have found:
2.0.1 - does not work 2.0.2 - does not work 2.0.4 - works when the UNPACK_WAR variable is set to false. So I guess this is a warning to people using older versions. Thanks for the help. -todd -----Original Message----- From: Carsten Ziegeler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 16, 2003 11:11 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: tomcat / cocoon problem Todd Densmore wrote: > > I think you misunderstood me.

And in some version of Cocoon (2.0 I think) it was working. So actually, you encountered a bug! Can you provide more information (logs etc) and perhaps enter it into bugzilla?
