Re: newbie question with wildcard in sitemap
You have a map:act/ surrounding not only this map:generate/. This
map:act/ makes it necessary to use {../1}:
map:generate src=docs/{../1}/home.xml /

Suggestion for a Cocoon newbie
Hello! I'm a Java developer and I'm looking for a solid system to construct my sites. I have already realized an e-commerce site, but without rules. My jsp pages contain both logic and presentation layer. Only the data layer is encapsulated into java classes called from jsp. Now I have to construct an intranet at my company where employees will register their activity during the day. The site involves form validation, business logic, and the use of a database. Before becoming aware of Cocoon, I thought I would build the site this way: - a layer of java classes that interface with the database; - a layer of java classes for business logic; - a layer of jsp for presentation; Now I have downloaded the latest version of Cocoon and read many pages of documentation. But I'm very confused! I read about XSP but I read also about XMLForm ... and where I put my business logic? For example, I downloaded a tutorial from IBM about Cocoon and databases but it shows only the XSP pages to dialog with the database and format the data ... no business logic in it. I'm interested about Cocoon because one goal of it is the MVC or SoC approach when a site is developed. Please, can anyone suggest me the right way to use Cocoon?

RE: Newbie user
The book you're reading is for the previous 2.0.x release of cocoon - you're using the 2.1 branch so some details like that are going to be out of whack. There is a status document, and an upgrading guide that might give you some overview of major changes. The core concepts of the book should be mostly still valid with a few exceptions. Further, the light version of Jetty (bundled now with cocoon for convenience of test driving) that you are starting by doing cocoon.sh by default launches cocoon at the root context. Where you see /cocoon/ in urls in examples or demos, they are assuming you've installed cocoon into a servlet container under a named context - as you would if you dropped cocoon.war into the webapps folder of Tomcat. The existing documentation for the 2.1 branch is a little out of date in parts and we could use your help discovering problem areas. In fact, new documentation is happening over at the cocoon wiki (http://wiki.cocoondev.org). Have fun and write back with anything you have trouble with.

I've just downloaded (from CVS) the latest code for cocoon (for the first time) and built it according to some (somewhat) conflicting/confusing instructions (naming build target webapp).

I can open my browser on localhost: and I see the 'Welcome to Cocoon!' page that says I've successfully installed Cocoon with the button that will take me to cocoon.apache.org.

Newbie: writing XML files with Cocoon
Hi, Apologies if this is a basic question. I'm just starting with Cocoon really and am trying to produce a content management system using it to see whether it really is suitable for my needs. As part of this I need to edit xml files via the browser but it occurs to me this must be something that loads of people have done already. My question is therefore what content management projects exist or failing that what browser based XML editing tools exist.

Re: Newbie: writing XML files with Cocoon
I'm just starting with Cocoon really and am trying to produce a content management system using it to see whether it really is suitable for my needs. First of all I would recommend that you participate in developing Apache Lenya (see http://lenya.org/ or http://cocoon.apache.org/lenya/) which is a CMS based on Cocoon. As part of this I need to edit xml files via the browser but it occurs to me this must be something that loads of people have done already. My question is therefore what content management projects exist or failing that what browser based XML editing tools exist. You will find answers to this question on the Lenya website.

RE: Newbie: yet ANOTHER problem: db access (NoValidConnectionException)
Definitely go carefully through Andrew's list of checks first but I don't think that's your problem. Change your port back to 3306 or get rid of it from your connect string. 8080 is the tomcat port, but not the mysql port (by default at least - if you overrode that in configuring mysql and set it to 8080 then you'll need to fix that!) How did you get your version of cocoon? I assume you downloaded a distribution like cocoon-2.0.4-vm14-bin.zip. If you still have this around, or can reconstruct/remember which one you chose make sure you did _NOT_ get the one above but instead got cocoon-2.0.4-bin.zip. The excalibur project classes that handle the datasource pool had a version dependency on java version. Since you're using JDK 1.3, if you are trying to use the cocoon release for JDK 1.4 you'll get this exception. You should also be able to go to lib\ and look for the excalibur datasource jar (don't remember if all excalibur classes were bundled together or separate in 2.0.4 release) - it should have some kind of version info on it, including the target JDK it was compiled for. If there is a conflict you have a couple of choices: - Switch to JDK 1.4 OR - Download the correct cocoon dist. OR - Replace the excalibur datasource jar with the version from the other distribution. This may not work, but if you're on a slow dialup and can find someone to send you the right version of just that jar, it's worth a shot first. For some reason I seem to remember this also being thrown with a permissions problem in mysql. I thought that root usually got full access from all hosts and can't find any messages in the archives along these lines so perhaps I'm wrong. But if clearing up the jdk dependency doesn't work, try explicitly giving root access to the database you're using for the wildcard host: %. I seem to remember that mysql does not think you're coming from localhost when you connect via jdbc. You'll need to consult the mysql manual for the grant command. I noticed your jar was in a tomcat lib directory. You may want to follow Andrew's advice and move it to the WEB-INF\lib\ directory. Should work either place, but there are some classloader subtleties that could be throwing things off.

Newbie: Suggestions for development environment
I am a technical writer learning to use Cocoon. I have read the FAQs and done Google searches for an answer to this question (which doesn't mean that it is not out there somewhere, of course). I have installed Cocoon and experimented with it somewhat successfully and would like to begin building and deploying a webapp that will create dynamic documentation. I am creating my project on a Linux box on a home network, and will deploy to a Web server on the Internet. I would like to keep the full Cocoon installation (2.0.3 on Tomcat 4.1.18) on my home box, but don't particularly want to burden my hosting provider with all of the samples, documentation, and other overhead of the full install. I am confused after reading about setting up a development environment and deploying webapps. I have created multiple Cocoon instances, but am not sure this is the best way to do it. The reason I say this, is that when I access localhost/cocoon I see the directory page; but when I access localhost/cocoon_dev (the second instance, set up with intentions of creating a Cocoon instance with minimal overhead for my webapp) I get a 404 error. This tells me that something is amiss (I think). Another method I have read says that the way to do it is to create a webapp directory within the cocoon/mount directory and use a subsitemap. OK. But when I deploy from my local (home network) machine to my provider's machine (on the Internet) I will have to create a new sitemap that references whatever components the webapp requires. Maybe this is no big deal to experienced Cocoon developers/users but it seems like an opportunity for a lot of confusion and extra work. What is the best practice for this that allows the most hassle-free deployment with the least opportunity for breaking the webapp in moving it from local machine to host machine? You may reply off-list if you like and I will post whatever works for other newbies. As always, let me know if I have left out information that would be helpful in understanding the question, and I will provide it. Or, if there is a link that explains this, that would be fine, as well. Thanks. Joe
RE: Newbie: Suggestions for development environment
I'm not sure I understand what you want to achieve. To have two cocoons on tomcat, you can simply put two war files with different names. For example, put cocoon.war and its copy under name cocoon-dev.war in webapps directory. So, you'll have two cocoons: http://localhost:8080/cocoon/ and http://localhost:8080/cocoon-dev/.When I play with settings, sometimes, I simply copy extracted cocoon directory in Tomcat's webapps folder into a different name, like /webapps/cocoon1. There was also a thread on "minimal" cocoon deployment, maybe that's what you need to search for in this mailing list. -Original Message-From: Joe Williams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Sent: Saturday, April 05, 2003 11:02 AMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: Newbie: Suggestions for development environment I have created multiple Cocoon instances, but am not sure this is the best way to do it.

RE: Newbie: Suggestions for development environment
I am also a Newbie but, having the same outlook as yourself I think I understand what you want... snip/ I have created multiple Cocoon instances, but am not sure this is the best way to do it. The reason I say this, is that when I access localhost/cocoon I see the directory page; but when I access localhost/cocoon_dev (the second instance, set up with intentions of creating a Cocoon instance with minimal overhead for my webapp) I get a 404 error. This tells me that something is amiss (I think). I think you are looking for a so called minimal install. This includes the requirements of Cocoon but does not include all the other stuff. See the http://wiki.cocoondev.org/ (thanks to Geoff Howard) site for more info. I found the page rather hidden away being a link under Main, For Beginners, Set up cocoon in 15 minutes, [scroll down] MinimalCocoonConfiguration so here's a direct link: http://wiki.cocoondev.org/Wiki.jsp?page=MinimalCocoonConfiguration. However, as an ignorant novice I noted that this tutorial didn't go quite far enough: having deleted all the pipelines you have to put at least one back and a corresponding file (of course) to test whether it works or you'll just get an error! Another method I have read says that the way to do it is to create a webapp directory within the cocoon/mount directory and use a subsitemap. snip/ What is the best practice for this that allows the most hassle-free deployment with the least opportunity for breaking the webapp in moving it from local machine to host machine? Don't know myself yet sorry! With my limited experience it seems that sub apps are nice and portable but may have app specific (rather than cocoon specific) requirements (e.g. db connection pools, logicsheets) that are set in the main app so it kinda depends what you are doing I guess.

Question from a newbie
Hi folks, I apologize in advance if this mailing list is not the appropriate place for this question, but I think I've nearly worn out Google trying to find the solution to my problem. I have been asked to locate software that can dynamically create a newsletter from numerous RSS feeds according to individual user preferences and then pass it along to a message transfer agent. Here is the process my boss envisions: 1.. Readers subscribe to a newsletter, and specify the content areas and sub-domains they would like to receive information on. 2.. Each newsletter is dynamically generated with the content specified by the individual subscriber. 3.. The newsletter is emailed to the subscriber. All of my research indicates that Apache Cocoon is practically manna from heaven in this area, except that I can't find any examples of it being used for e-mail applications - just Web applications. Is anyone here aware of whether or not Cocoon can be put to work with dynamic e-mail applications? If so, are there any examples I can show my boss? Any information/advice is appreciated.

Sean, This is exaclty the type of application that is demonstrated in the book, Cocoon: Building XML Applications by Matthew Langham and Carsten Ziegeler, published by New Riders. There are 3 versions of a news portal that increase in complexity. I have found the book to be a great resource for Cocoon in general and it should have exactly what you need.

Hi All, Big thanks to Geoff Howard for his swift and fruitful reply to my last post. I am just starting with Cocoon and I'm sorry to ask yet more what I'm sure are stupid questions but... Following Geoff's advice I have read the enclosed documentation and looked on http://wiki.cocoondev.org.

Using these two sources I have set up work as a sub-dir of mount and put in it two files: sitemap.xmap and home.html, the source for which is shown below. When I browse to http://localhost:8080/cocoon/mount/work/ I receive the following message: Cocoon 2 - Resource not found type resource-not-found message Resource not found description The requested URI /cocoon/mount/work/home.html was not found. sender org.apache.cocoon.servlet.CocoonServlet source Cocoon servlet request-uri /cocoon/mount/work/home.html path-info mount/work/home.html I can see that it clearly is getting as far as looking for the file home.html in the root folder of the app but I don't understand why it doesn't find it: it is there!

Cocoon installation error: Wrapper cannot find servlet class org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon from an ignorant newbie convert from Microsoft:-)
Hi, I am a recent convert (only two weeks old) to Java, Tomcat et al from the world of Microsoft ASP and .Net. As such please forgive me for asking what I'm sure is a very basic question. However, I have checked the Cocoon FAQ's, read my books (Java, JavaServer Pages, Java and XML, O'Reilly) and searched the mail archive still drawing a blank. Basically I have installed Cocoon according to the instructions on the site (http://xml.apache.org/cocoon1/install.html) and also those in 'Java and XML Ch10 P.248 and I get the message: Wrapper cannot find servlet class org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon or a class it depends on (I include the complete error message below for your reference) I am Using: Win98 (boo hoo) Java 1.3.1 Tomcat 4.1.24 Cocoon 1.8.2 I also have Personal Web Server installed but I have made no attempt to connect the two. Tomcat works fine: I have run several example scripts without fail. I have checked over my Cocoon installation several times and over several days (to allow for the I DID do it right I'm SURE factor). I have noticed that I need to set up the files [TOMCAT HOME]/conf/server.xml slightly differently from the instructions which tell me to use the value: Context path=/cocoon docbase=webapps/cocoon... I find this returns a 404 and only if I set it to Context path=/cocoon docbase=cocoon... or remove it completely does it work. I assume this is down to my Tomcat being 4.1.24 rather than Brett McLaughlin's (Java and XML, O'Reilly) Tomcat 3.2.1 the comments preceding the section in the document supporting this: Define properties for each web application. This is only needed if you want to set non-default properties, or have web application document roots in places other than the virtual host's appBase directory I have concluded (rightly or wrongly) the problem is that it can't find the cocoon.properties file which is referenced by the [TOMCAT HOME]/webapps/cocoon/WEB-INF/web.xml. The instructions tell me to set this to WEB-INF/cocoon.properties which I have tried but I have also played around with this value as cocoon/WEB-INF/cocoon.properties and cocoon.properties without success.

RE: Cocoon installation error: Wrapper cannot find servlet class org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon from an ignorant newbie convert from Microsoft:-)
You may find some people still able to help you with cocoon 1.x, but I would _highly_ suggest ignoring that now outdated chapter, and using the current release version 2.0.4 which is significantly changed and improved from the 1.8.x version. You'll find good up to date installation instructions, and a lot more people here that will be able to help you if something goes wrong. There are several good books now available for Cocoon 2 if you want to go that route, but you should also be able to make good headway using the provided documentation and samples, as well as the breeding ground for new documentation, http://wiki.cocoondev.org.

Newbie question about CSS display
Forgive the elementary nature of this question, but I am new to Cocoon, my background is documentation and not development, and I have read and searched for an explanation for this weirdness without success. Using DocBook XML and the DocBook XSL with a customization layer, I want to change the styles using a CSS. My formatting changes are displayed when I run the transformation from the command line, but not when I use Cocoon. Is this to be expected, or what? Does the transformation occur differently when using Cocoon than when using Xalan alone?

Re: Newbie question about CSS display
Joe,
you're question is so wide.
Here is how I use a CSS in an XSL file.
load the CSS.
map:pipeline
map:match pattern=style/*.css
map:read mime-type=text/css src=demo/{1}.css/
/map:match
/map:pipeline
load the file :
map:match pattern=welcome
map:generate type=file src=proto/xml/welcome.xml/
map:transform type=xslt src=proto/xsl/welcome.xsl/
map:serialize type=html/
/map:match
In the XSL file :
xsl:template match=/
html
head
link rel=stylesheet type=text/css href=style.css/ -- link
to the style.
/head
body
xsl:apply-templates/
/body
/html
/xsl:template
hope this help.

Hello Joe,
you don't give very exact error description, only it does not work. So
it's only possible to guess. Or you give us more information.
I guess the error is a missing or a wrong match for the CSS.
The information you can provide:
1. Which URL do you type in the browser for the Cocoon delivered HTML.
2. How does the according match pattern in the sitemap for the docbook
transformation look like.
3. How does the link/ tag for the CSS in the generated HTML look like?
4. How does the according match pattern in the sitemap for the CSS look like?
The transformation offline or in Cocoon may be different (but I don't
really think so), but has nothing to do with the loading of the CSS.
Regards,
Joerg

Re: Newbie question about CSS display
It's a little bit confused but if you want to do it.
You should declare do :
map:pipeline
map:match pattern=*.css
map:read src={1}.css mime-type=text/css/
/map:match
/map:pipeline
then :
map:pipeline
map:match pattern=book
map:generate src=book.xml/
map:transform src=book.xsl
map:parameter name=css-stylesheet value=cocoon:/book.css/ -- I'm
not really sure value attribute can get a cocoon protocol, but why not.
/map:transform
map:serialize/
/map:match
/map:pipeline
In the xsl document :
xsl:param name=css-stylesheet select=book.css/ -- I'm not sure this
is working because if you want to call an URL, you should use the
document() fonction like this. document('host:8080/book.css).
xsl:param name=html.stylesheet.typetext/css/xsl:param

Re: Newbie question about CSS display
Hello Joe,
Joe Williams wrote:
Thanks for the response, let me see if this makes things clearer.
I'm not getting an error message, but the formatting changes to the DocBook
XSL (by means of my CSS) do not appear in the browser.
The URL:
http://myserver:8080/cocoon/book/book
This succeeds in calling the document. When I view the source of the
displayed HTML, the link to the CSS stylesheet appears:
link href=book.css rel=stylesheet type=text/css
so far everything seems to be clear and ok. Try to access
http://myserver:8080/cocoon/book/book.css
in your browser to see if you get the CSS.
Therefore, I expect the changes to appear, but they do not. The CSS is in
the same directory (book) as the XML source (book.xml) the XSL
stylesheet (book.xsl) and the CSS (book.css)
This is more or less not interesting for the browser. Important is only the
mapping in the sitemap. You wrote already you have the following two pipelines:
map:pipeline
map:match pattern=book
map:generate src=book.xml/
map:transform src=book.xsl
map:parameter name=css-stylesheet value=book.css/
/map:transform
map:serialize/
/map:match
map:match pattern=*.css
map:read src={1}.css mime-type=text/css/
/map:match
/map:pipeline
Only here (= for the sitemap) the directories are interesting. As you wrote
the pipeline it's correct to have both files in the same directory.
What do you want to reach with
map:parameter name=css-stylesheet value=book.css/
?? Do you have a global xsl:param name=css-stylesheet/ in your book.xsl?
Otherwise the map:parameter/ is useless. You already configured your
DocBook with
xsl:param name=html.stylesheet select='book.css'/
and that's correct.
This only for clarification. Test the stylesheet independent of the DocBook
HTML with http://myserver:8080/cocoon/book/book.css;. If you get it, hmm, I
don't know. If not, what do you get?
I have not tried Lionel's suggestions yet, but will do so.
Sorry, but this won't help you much. You don't want to include the CSS in
the DocBook HTML, but a link element refering to the CSS. So you only must
pass the CSS's name and not the CSS itself to the XSLT stylesheet.
Using document('host:8080/book.css') won't work either, because you can't
read text with it, only XML.
And the third suggestion using a xsl:template match=// can break the
DocBook transformation completely. Use the parameterization as suggested by
Norman Walsh and as you already did it.
Regards,
Joerg

Hello Joe,
you don't give very exact error description, only it does not work. So
it's only possible to guess. Or you give us more information.
I guess the error is a missing or a wrong match for the CSS.
The information you can provide:
1. Which URL do you type in the browser for the Cocoon delivered HTML.
2. How does the according match pattern in the sitemap for the docbook
transformation look like.
3. How does the link/ tag for the CSS in the generated HTML look like?
4. How does the according match pattern in the sitemap for the CSS look
like?
The transformation offline or in Cocoon may be different (but I don't
really
think so), but has nothing to do with the loading of the CSS.
Regards,
Joerg

Re: Newbie question about CSS display
When I try to reach the CSS directly, I get a Cocoon error (see below). What do you want to reach with map:parameter name=css-stylesheet value=book.css/ ?? Do you have a global xsl:param name=css-stylesheet/ in your book.xsl? No, I do not. I commented that line out, and the link to the CSS still appears in the HTML result, so it obviously doesn't do anything useful here. Not sure why I put that in there, except for my newbieness...just hacking around to see if I could get it to work. This only for clarification. Test the stylesheet independent of the DocBook HTML with http://myserver:8080/cocoon/book/book.css;. If you get it, hmm, I don't know. If not, what do you get?

And this one searches for the CSS file on another place on the disk. A look into the log file, especially for stacktraces, will help I think. Maybe one can see a FileNotFoundException (or Resource...) with the specified path, where the file was searched for.

Newbie: Best practices for DocBook XSL on Cocoon
I have a question about using DocBook XSL with Cocoon, for anyone who has been successful in doing so. In hopes of getting some help and maybe helping others, I offer the following background. After reading numerous posts to the archives for this list, and other resources, I am aware that not everyone is in favor of using the DocBook XSL stylesheets with Cocoon. However, I have also found that some people have done so successfully, and would like to do so myself. I have been successful in serving DocBook XML content with a homegrown XSL stylesheet and CSS, but when I attempted to use the DocBook XSL to produce html, I get a blank page. (The transform runs fine from the command line.) Looking at cocoon/WEB-INF/logs/error.log I see a fatal exception in "docbook/html/common/common.xsl; Line 1576; Column 35", "javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: 13 = 1" and farther down in the log, I see"java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 13 = 1" Going to "docbook/html/common/common.xsl; Line 1576; Column 35", I see the following: xsl:when test="$value !="''" OK, so xalan doesn't like this line, I guess? Here's my setup: Cocoon 2.0.3 Using these classes in /usr/tomcat/webapps/cocoon/WEB-INF/lib: xalan-2.3.1.jar xalan2.jar (docbook extensions from Norm) xercesImpl-2.0.0.jar xml-apis.jar Using jre 1.3.1_06 DocBook XML DTD 4.2 DocBook XSL 1.5 I would like to keep using xalan, but if I have to add saxon, please point me to a good procedure for doing so. Ditto for any other suggestions. When I get the setup working, I will post the info to the list. Thanks. Joe
Re: Newbie: Best practices for DocBook XSL on Cocoon
Hello Joe, I used DocBook without any problems in Cocoon. It's a few months ago and I don't know what versions of Cocoon and Xalan I used. I guess it was Cocoon 2.0.3, Xalan 2.3.1 and DocBook 1.51. So try to test it with a more current version of DocBook (I don't have a file docbook/html/common/common.xsl, only docbook/common/common.xsl, but no line 1576). Furthermore it's possible, that it is a bug in Xalan 2.3.1, so try 2.4.1.

Newbie Sitemap Help
Hello All,
I am really new to working with Cocoon platform, and was trying to
read and understand all that I could before posting for help. have
been having trouble setting up a sitemap for a test application that
I am currently developing.
First off, I am just trying to get a working prototype. I hoping to
accomplish a way for a user to request a foo.html document have the
HTML Generator with a jtidy.properties file convert it to xml/xhtml
and the use a xsl sheet to convert the it to wml and serailze it with
wap/wml.
At this point I am really stuck on why I keep getting a fatal
language error. I am not sure if it is a sitemap error or something
in the pipeline causing the error.
I tried placing the documents into a separate folder under
$COCOON_HOME/mount/foo/
I wrote a sub-sitemap in the foo directory. Each time I try
requesting the foo.html I get a couple fatal language errors. I am
rather lost at this point and if anybody has an idea for me to try
please let me know. Any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Andrew Smith
I have included a short message error and my sub-sitemap.

AW: Newbie
hi richard (again ;-),
you may have a stylesheet for it, but from the sitemap.xmap attached I don't
see it applied to your xml.
another thing; you're not getting any images displayed, are you? just asking
because I see your matches on *.gif and *.jpg not being defined within
pipelines. the paths in the @src attributes of the readers are most probably
wrong (I think the one starting with 'cocoon/' is definitely wrong.
let's sort things out a bit; I assume when installing you put the cocoon war
in tomcat's webapps directory ($TOMCAT_HOME/webapps). afterwards tomcat
unpacked this war and you then had (and now have) cocoon in
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/cocoon. let's call the latter $COCOON_HOME. in this
directory you have a sitemap.xmap file which represents the _root sitemap_.
I infer you created a subdirectory 'soundpool' within $COCOON_HOME and
inserted a mount for this in your _root sitemap_. something like the
following:
map:match pattern=soundpool/**
map:mount src=soundpool/ uri-prefix=soundpool/
/map:match
what you need to understand here is _contexts_. each sitemap represents a
different context. and all relative paths within sitemaps are evaluated
against the context.
examples (assuming a normal cocoon installation, i.e. reachable via
http://localhost:8080/cocoon/):
1. localhost:8080/cocoon/foo.xml
the 'cocoon' part maps to cocoon's servlet, thus cocoon gets a request for
'foo.xml'. since all the request processing starts from the root sitemap,
it would have to be handled here.
2. localhost:8080/cocoon/soundpool/foo.xml
assuming the mount of your 'soundpool' sitemap mentioned above. this time
cocoon gets a request for 'soundpool/foo.xml'. since you have a matcher in
your sitemap for anything starting with 'soundpool'
(map:match pattern=soundpool/**) this request is handed to your
'soundpool' sitemap/context (via the map:mount).
note here that before being processed by your sub-sitemap/context the
prefix 'soundpool' is removed from the request uri (because of the
@uri-prefix=soundpool); 'soundpool/foo.xml' becomes 'foo.xml' and is now
handed to your sub- sitemap for processing.
3. localhost:8080/cocoon/soundpool/foo/bar/baz.xml
same assumptions as in 2. 'foo/bar/baz.xml' is handed to your sub-sitemap.
another important point for you to know here is the context's directory
(which is the directory the sitemap.xmap for your sub-sitemap/context
lives). when you have relative references in your sitemap (e.g. map:read
mime-type=image/gif src=foo/bar.gif/) these are resolved against the
subsitemap's/context's directory.
so, taking your attached sitemap (which I assume lives in
$COCOON_HOME/soundpool):
!-- images Readers --
map:match pattern=*.gif
map:read mime-type=image/gif
src=cocoon/soundpool/images/{1}.gif/
/map:match
map:match pattern=soundpool/images/*.jpg
map:read mime-type=image/jpg src=images/{1}.jpg/
/map:match
1. localhost:8080/cocoon/soundpool/foo.gif
same assumptions as in examples above. 'foo.gif' is handed to your
sub-sitemap/context. your first matcher matches.then the reader tries to
read from 'cocoon/soundpool/images/foo.gif' (the {1} was replaced with the
text the '*'matched). this finally resolves (against your context's dir)
to $COCOON_HOME/soundpool/cocoon/soundpool/images/foo.gif.
so this file would have to exist for things to work. but I assume that you
have an 'images' directory in your soundpool
folder. thus, your relative references to the image files must be relative
to your context's dir. for the .jpgs this is
right already. but as mentioned at the beginning, the sitemap snippet above
must go into a map:pipeline element.
one last point regarding the matching; the single '*' only matches 'flat'
file names, e.g. foo.gif, bar.gif, but not paths like foo/bar.gif or
foo/bar/baz.gif. though I just tell you before you run into problems.

Re: Newbie Use of Request Params with DB Action
Thank you once again. Before I created this post to cocoon-users, I tried using the request generator after the mod-db action and all of the request parameters were gone (weren't displayed with xml serializer). Before the mod-db action they were all there (using the request generator). That's why I created this thread. Maybe I did something wrong. I'll try again - work on it some more. If I'm successful, I'll let you know. If not, I'll send my pipeline and xsl.

Newbie Use of Request Params with DB Action
Hello, I'm using a version of cocoon that I built from CVS back in October of 2002, running with tomcat 4.1.12 on WIN XP. I have a pipeline that generates an HTML form and passes parameters to a mod-db action which inserts DB records successfully. Can any of those parameters passed to the action be passed to another pipeline after the mod-db action or are those parameters gone? __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

I just started looking at Cocoon and I find the portal piece really nice. I tried building the src with the correct option but I don't know how to build and deploy the portal piece. When you run the option and then build it comes up with 2 jar files. Are they independent files or do they get dropped in the web-apps directory and explode by themselves?

You may look at the following place to get the portal running. http://www.saxess.com/JSPWiki/Wiki.jsp?page=Install in fact this page doesnt tell explicitly how the portal is comnpiled, this jaust happens under the hood. so just follow the cookbook and your done (im speeking for cocoon-2.0.4 only, no idea about the HEAD version) hussayn Sean McKaharay wrote: I just started looking at Cocoon and I find the portal piece really nice.

you should also be able to write it this way:

newbie question
Hi, I am quite new to cocoon. I am evaulating web publishing frameworks for my company. Although Cocoon sounds very promising I am not entiely sure because the pages in my web application are not static. All of them are dynamically generated on the fly. The backend services although still under design may be developed using JINI, object databases, LDAP etc The main reason why I was drawn to cocoon was its multichanel capabilities. We may want to target the pages to a number of devices - mobiles, PDAs, PCs etc My original (very simplistic) design was to simply have servlets generate XML and then transform these using XSLT. This is where I thought cocoon would help. My question is - is cocoon good for static pages or can it be used for highly interactive dynamic pages?

Re: newbie question
Tellis You ask is cocoon good for static pages or can it be used for highly interactive dynamic pages? Very short version answer is: Yes, Cocoon can be used for both. Slightly longer: Cocoon essentially *is* a servlet, designed to enable the creation of XML (from static files, databases, web services or other sources) and provide an efficient and effective framework for manipluating that XML into a variety of output formats (including all the ones you list). Cocoon works whether you have a single file or a whole multitude with any combination of static or dynamic. Even longer (from the Cocoon Home Page at: http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/) Designed for performance and scalability around pipelined SAX processing, Cocoon offers a flexible environment based on a separation of concerns between content, logic, and style. Cocoon's centralized configuration system helps you to create, deploy, and maintain rock-solid XML server applications. Cocoon interacts with most data sources, including filesystems, RDBMS, LDAP, native XML databases, and network-based data sources. It adapts content delivery to the capabilities of different devices like HTML, WML, PDF, SVG, and RTF, to name just a few. You can run Cocoon as a Servlet as well as through a powerful, commandline interface. The deliberate design of its abstract environment gives you the freedom to extend its functionality to meet your special needs in a highly modular fashion.

Re: newbie question
from my experience i can say, cocoon can be used for highly dynamic pages. You have to individually check on performance issues, but in general until today i have been quite satisfied with what i can gain from using it. I must admit, that i currently only use the basics. never tried the esql thing, and more sophisticated onse, but so far im very shure, it can be used especially in a multi channel environment. hussayn Tellis George wrote: Hi, I am quite new to cocoon.

Re: newbie question
hy, Tellis im just working on a project, where: 1.) an existing webapp can't be merged with the cocoon-webapp due to incompatible jar versions 2.) the existing webapp may not be modified, except the creation of an additional XML-layer for read/write access. I am working on howto get a cocoon-based presentation layer in the middle between the legacyapp and the browser frontend. Things start working and i make quick progress at the moment.

Re: newbie question
Tellis OK; this is getting into deeper waters again, it is certainly possible (and is often discussed on this mailing list) but some of the explanations of 'how" are probably best left until you understand a little of why/how Cocoon operates. A lot will also depend on which services and servlets you are working with and how *they* are configured and what their capabilities/limitations are.

newbie: creating a cocoon action using AbstractMultiAction
Hi all,
I am currently trying to create my own action for
cocoon 2. Moreover, I am trying to use the
AbstractMultiAction class so I can call methods on the
action via a http post form field. Unfortunately I
have been able to compile it, but get a Class Not
Found Exception when I try access the URL that points
to the sitemap with the mounted action. I am not
trying to use the action, I just have the action
mounted. Below is my java action code and I have
attached my stack trace/sitemap as one text file. Any
help would be appreciated. I am using red hat 8.0,
j2sdk 1.4, and a cocoon 2.x build from about a month
ago.
Thanks in Advance

Re: newbie: creating a cocoon action using AbstractMultiAction
Hi Julian, Not sure what the problem is exactly, but your source file has your action in the package 'org.apache.cocoon.acting', whereas your sitemap.xmap file says that is under 'com.ethidium.cocoon.action'. Perhaps that's causing things to go a bit pear shaped. Hope that helps.

Re: newbie: creating a cocoon action using AbstractMultiAction
Hey Marcus, Yeah I'm sorry, but I had fixed that (I jsut sent the old sitemap DUH). You see I tried it in the original package of com.ethidium, but then thought my class should be in the cocoon dev jar so I moved it to org.apache.cocoon.acting and changed the sitemap. Unfortunately neither worked eventhough the sitemap matched the location of the class. I know it is accessing the class since it is looking for the AbstractMultiAction class (it's superclass). I am running also the slide sample from the scratchpad which has actions that use the AbstractMultiAction class as well...but they works fine. I am boggled about this...could it have something to do with Thread safety from the Avalon framework or some funny classloading issue?

Re: AW: newbie: creating a cocoon action using AbstractMultiAction
Thanks, but the class is in the cocoon-2.1-dev.jar under $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/cocoon/WEB-INF/lib. I tried moving it into $TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib, but after that Cocoon would not even start...so based on that result I did not put it on the machine's CLASSPATH and just let TOMCAT load the classes from the jar.
