From a quick look at what you say the problems you are experiencing
are from cocoon requiring a more recent JAXP implementation than is
in the geronimo 1.2-beta you are using. AFAICT the jaxp
implementation has to be installed in lib/endorsed and cannot be
affected by any application classpaths or classloader settings (such
as inverse-classloading). I believe that in the geronimo 1.2 branch
code and the 2.0 trunk code we have successfully navigated through
various problems I can't discuss here that kept us at antique jaxp
versions for a long time and include fairly up to date jaxp
implementations and apis. In any case you can certainly replace or
install xml libraries in lib/endorsed to what you need.

Please correct me if I misrepresent anything. My understanding was
one of the primary benefits of J2EE was independent class loading.
My application uses Cocoon with
org.apache.cocoon.components.modules.input.XMLFileModule configured in
cocoon.xconf.
I created a Cocoon WAR using the ant build target.
Sometimes I deply the WAR to Geronimo. Sometimes I create an EAR. I
have not tested if the results differ depending on the format
deployed.
I used Eclipse 3.2 to create an EAR project.
I used Eclipse 3.2 to Import the WAR with the "Add project to an
EAR" option.
The next screen states: "Select the web library jars from the list
below to be imported as web library projects. Unselected web
libraries will be imported as jars in the WEB-INF/lib directory."
No libraries were selected so all libraries are imported to
cocoon.war\WEB-INF\lib.
I deployed the EAR on Geronimo.
The Cocoon pipeline using XMLFileModule errors:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
javax.xml.transform.dom.DOMResult.getNextSibling()Lorg/w3c/dom/Node;
I solved this by copying Cocoon's lib/endorsed/xml-apis-1.3.04.jar to
Geronimo's lib/endorsed directory. (I planned to remove
xmlParserAPIs-2.6.2.jar but this proved unnecessary, probably because
xmlParserAPIs-2.6.2 is ancient.)
Should the Cocoon WAR use the JARs in the WAR before the JARs in
Geronimo?
