Hi David,
you might be running into a problem with the classloader. XML libraries
are very prone to these errors.
Did you try with a recent nightly build of RIFE?
Did you try by disabling the classloader in the webapp?
Do you have the same problems when you try parsing a local XML document
with Dom4J?
Can you send the most simple possible self-contained testcase?
Best regards,
Geert

I have been having a lot of problems getting a section of my application
working within the RIFE framework. What I have as part of my top level menu
is an element that reads some XML data from a remote server and stores it in
a Postgresql database. I have implemented most of this logic in a backend
class.
I am using the dom4j library for doing the reading of the remote data and
parsing it (I am open to other suggestions - I'm not going to insist on using
this!). The problem is that even the simplest attempt to read from a remote
server results in no activity and eventually a class cast exception from
somewhere deep in dom4j. I have verified that the particular code I'm using
works fine outside of a RIFE framework (I have used it a number of times in
other apps).
I certainly don't expect anyone on this list to debug dom4j for me! What I
feel I'm be missing is the RIFE way of fetching XML data from a remote URL
and storing it in a database table. Perhaps by defining a datasource in
config or something like that. I don't find any examples of this kind of
thing and find it difficult to separate out what might be useful from bare
bones Javadoc.
Can anyone help?
David Herbert.
