Great, than you should know that if you deploy Cocoon as C:/Tomcat/webapps/cocoon, then all files goes under this directory - Cocoon nowadays is trying to behave as regular servlet as much as possible. Then, to change /cocoon/ part in the URL or to change directory - just edit server.xml of the Tomcat. Note: you still can access files outside of Cocoon's context by specifying absolute file URLs in the sitemap. Try file://var/tmp/whatever - it should work as well. > The problem is not deploying these, but understanding specific > configurations which aren't well documented IMHO. I totally agree with you here that Cocoon's documentation is not the best one (to say at least). > It's been very recent > since I got into the XML technology (specifically with cocoon) so what > im really asking for is better sharing of knowledge amongst us... Use archives, thing is that most questions are already answered on this list more than one time. If you had a question, and found an answer in archive, and want to share this knowledge - send in a patch to the documentation.
