You're missing some JAR files in the classpath. Judging from the error
message at least avalon-framework.jar is missing. Please tell us how you
start FOP. Are you using the fop.bat script that comes with FOP? Are you
using "java -jar fop.jar"? Or are you setting up the classpath yourself?

The method Main.startFOPWithDynamicClasspath() is only called if some
dependencies FOP needs are missing on the classpath. In this case, FOP
tries to find the dependencies itself. But that only works if the
current directory (the directory where you start the JVM from) is the
root directory of your FOP installation.

If you start FOP using fop.bat from the root directory of your FOP
installation, it should work. Would you please test that?

Good luck.
