Re: I get a mysterious NoClassDefFoundError
Devon-
Check J.Pietschmann's reply to your problem. He explains why your original
command wasn't working, and why Jimi isn't included in the FOP download. I
believe you can just download Jimi from the Sun site if you want it, but
I've been running with the batch file as is, with no problems. It appears
that if you specify a bad classpath, it's simply ignored, rather than
bringing everything to a halt.

AAhh i see. Thanx. I ignored That batch file, because it had the
jimi.jar in it's path, and since that jar didn't come with my
download I assumed that batch was for something totally
different. Any idea where I can get a copy of the jimi.jar? I'm
thinking that if I simply have that, it will solve all my
problems. If I download an old copy of FOP, and use THAT
jimi.jar, might it work in the latest FOP?

L'eau wrote: -jar fop.jar -xml xmlfoRef.xml -xsl xml2pdf.xsl -pdf output.pdf ^ Using the -jar option forces the classpath defined in the manifest in the jar, which contains relative path entries. I belive the -cp setting is completely irrelevant in this scenario. Replace "-jar fop.jar" by org.apache.fop.apps.Fop or use java -jar fop.jar -xml... in the directory where you installed FOP (the lib directory with the jars should be a subdirectory). A much better and easier way is to use the fop.bat or fop.sh files from the distribution. Make sure the directory where the files are stored is the current directory while executing them.

Devon- OK, I'm confused too.

There should be two files: fop.sh (for Unix) and fop.bat (for windows) If they are not there, I would download fop again Carlos On 05/01/02 8:40, "L'eau" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi Jeff, > > Now I'm confused.

Re: I get a mysterious NoClassDefFoundError
Look at the fop.sh script and see what is it that you're missing. I normally run fop like this: /usr/local/java/fop/fop.sh -xml why-naginata.xml -xsl xsl/fo/cal.xsl -pdf naginata.pdf Note that you can specify additional classpath on the fop.sh script. See if the fop.sh script works and let us know. It may also have to do with the fact that J2SDK1.4 comes with older versions of Xerces and Xalan bundled by default and it will use the ones bundled over those on your classpath. See if fop.sh works and if it doesn't consider downgrading to 1.3 Carlos On 05/01/02 7:43, "L'eau" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, I'm new to the list. > > I don't have any clue why this is happening to me.

Re: I get a mysterious NoClassDefFoundError
Devon-
I think you're missing a jar in there. My call to FOP includes the
following -cp parameter:
-cp
build\fop.jar;lib\batik.jar;lib\xalan-2.0.0.jar;lib\xerces-1.2.3.jar;lib\avalon-framework-4.0.jar;lib\logkit-1.0.jar;lib\jimi-1.0.jar
I didn't see the path to the jimi-1.0,jar in your classpaths, and I'm not
sure what ant.jar is. I guess including the path to jimi.jar would be my
first attempt.
Just out of curiosity, why aren't you using the fop.bat that comes in the
downloadable package?
