Mark,
Let's do a little bit more detective work on your
side.  Let's see if the issue is the Batik/SVG
libraries (which, along with several other libraries,
are very closely intertwined with FOP, regardless of
whether or not you use them) or with the ColdFusion.
Try to run FOP from the command line--FOP.bat or
FOP.sh--using any of the .fo samples in the "examples"
directory.
fop helloworld.fo helloworld.pdf
Do you get the same error--or does it work fine?  If
the latter, I don't think the SVG is the
issue--something may be wrong with the ColdFusion
setup.  If the former, you may wish to download a new
copy of 0.20.5--something might be wrong with the FOP
libraries you're using.
If command-line works fine, then the next
step--unfortunately--may need to be for you to
download the 0.20.5 source build, modify the
apps.Driver class to (1) get the actual error message
coming from the ClassCastException and/or (2) comment
out the loading of the SVGElementMapping.  (Run "ant
package" to do the build.)  I would try (1) before
(2)--it may be an obvious error.

As far as I know, we are not trying to use any SVG
elements.
We are just taking an XML:FO file and attempting to
convert it into a
PDF file.
Even if we are not using SVG, it will still try to
use the
SVGElementMapping?
Thanks

I'm not sure.  This code is always run whenever FOP
is activated, at
Driver initialization, and I can't find others
having this issue in the
user archives.
The code in question is here:

http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/xml-fop/src/org/apache/fop/apps/ 
Attic/
Driver.java?annotate=1.36.2.10
You're throwing a ClassCastException at line 464,
which is producing this error.  FOP's boilerplate
for
this message ("XXXX is not an ElementMapping") might
be masking the real problem.  Also of note is that
another mapper at line 313 presumably did load
successfully (the one at 314 failed).  So there
might
be something wrong with your your Batik library
(which
FOP uses for SVG).  That or your ColdFusion setup
somehow is not making the SVGElementMapping visible.

What version of FOP are you running?

Hi,
I am running into an interesting problem when
trying
to run FOP on Cold
Fusion MX for J2EE server. The current
configuration
is WebSphere 5.0,
running CFMX for J2EE.
When we try to execute the servlet from the
coldfusion page (using the
java object commands)
the process starts running but then throws an
exception.  The stack
trace is as follows:
Error = java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
org.apache.fop.svg.SVGElementMapping is not an
