Cocoon doesnt quite work this way. In cocoon you map a URL to a pipeline, a combination of generator, 0 to n transformers, and a serializer. So all URLS are blocked unless they are mapped to a pipeline. Wheras mount may be mapped to a pipeline, that doesnt guarantee that it will give you a directory view. > > This is where things get interesting.

Temporary files there. Cocoon takes the sitemap and actually generates a java file and compiles it. It does that stuff in this directory. The only time you should ever have to look here is if you get some strange exception in a sitemap or XSP page and cant figure it out from the XML. Then you can go to the work directory and look up the source. Otherwise forget this directory. > > Where are the xml source files? Why did the war install Cocoon to such > a weird directory? Is not this a strange problem? The war isntalled to your deploy directory. Unpack it with the jar command and you will see all the gory guts of cocoon. You can create a directory named cocoon.war and unpack the actual war file into this directory. Then you can move this directory to the deploy directory of JBoss and it will treat it exactly as if it was a war file. Refer to the JBoss documentation on deploying exploded archives. It is within this war that you will find what you are lookign for. > > David Novogrodsky > http://www.novogrodsky.net > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (Darwin) -- Derisor --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. <http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faq/index.html> To unsubscribe, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
