Title: Re: is batik X-server  needed

It is only necessary if you will be doing a lot of graphical work with FOP, which uses Batik as the image library. In the installation page (http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/installing/index.html) there are instructions for installing Cocoon with an alternative AWT that does not use X.

Scroll down to the “Linux/Headless/Batik” section under Tomcat 4.0 for the details

David:

I think that this is a FAQ.... look in the group for messages I sent related to running a "headless server".  In essence, if you don't need to use batik, no you don't need the X-server.

Some of the alternative solutions to this problem aren't really feasible... I wound up running the Xvbf daemon instead...

Hi,
I wonder if you can help me?
I am installing Cocoon2 on a HP-UX system. However, I don't want to run
an X-server on this system. I know batik/FOP requires this.
Is there anyway around this?
Is there a way to not install batik/FOP as part of cocoon2?

 
I would be very grateful for any suggestions.

many thanks

David Reid
