you do not have to restart cocoon each time after editing the
site-map, just edit the cocoon.xconf at the very end to
<sitemap file="sitemap.xmap" reload-method="synchron" check-reload="yes"/> (check reload has to be yes and
synchron!!)
the other question i cannot answer, sorry

Subject: Wanted - C2 Idiots Guide to deploying XML/XSL/XSP filesHi,I have just moved from c1.8 to c2b2 and am lost on how to deploy even the simplest of code under c2. I did have c2 running as a war under Tomcat 3.2.3 but now have got it running as an "raw" web app with Apache 1.3.19/mod_jk acting as the HTTP server and java interface (i.e. I've got the aliases and jkmount /cocoon/* ajp12 in my httpd.conf). This is so I can easily develop and add in my basic noddy code without having to repackage the war each time. All the samples work fine but even a basic xml page coded and copied under the cocoon webapp folder results in a "page not found" error. My research leaves me to believe that I need to add something to the sitemap file so that the file can be picked up but does this mean that *every* page needs to be in sitemap, even if it is in some kind of wild card arrangement? It appears that cocoon must be restarted to reloaded the changed sitemap - surely this is a ridiculous overhead in development time and prevents rapid "code the page and test it" that I am used to - even on C1.8. I basically understand what the sitemap is doing for the samples - it's just seems too long winded when all I want to do is create a folder and do a simple XML/XSL transformation.Am I missing something? What I need is an idiots guide to deploying a basic XML file right through to a basic XSP/Logicsheet/XML scenario. An idiots guide to working with the sitemap file would help as well - the alpha documentation does not contain sufficent examples at the moment.As an example - how do I deploy the basic XML/XSL file deployed in the XSP Guide chapter that is in the c2 doc set:Assume:The file path: c:\java\tomcat\webapps\cocoon\mystuff (on Win 2000 pro btw)The url I request: http://localhost/cocoon/mystuff/greeting.xmlWith my C1.8 knowledge I would have expected that I just create the folder and plop the files (greeting.xml and greeting.xsl) in there but it seems that the sitemap holds the key to these being served...Perhaps with a few pointers I can write the idiots guide but I need a little help myself first!Many thanks in advanceJez
