Hi, I have succeeded in getting Cocoon 2.0.4 to run with Websphere 5.0.2, and have been able to develop a test site with it.
There are two things you need to do: 1: The web.xml file needs to be edited . There is an <init-param> element, with a <param-name> element with a value of "load-class". This element has a comment in the value of the <param-value> element. This appears to be upsetting WebSphere. You need to remove the comment. 2: The server configuration needs to be altered so the classloader is set to Parent Last. I have done this for both the parent ear file and the cocoon war file. Be warned, if the class loader is not set, the Cocoon application can go into a recurring loop. If this happens, you need to delete the servers temporary cache and re-publish the server. I hope this helps I have not had time to determine what causes any of this, or if there is a "better" way, but this is what works for us at the moment.

Hi all, I've got cocoon running under tomcat _no_worries_ but can I get it running under Websphere 5? _no_way_! Context: I'm using 'struts-cocoon' with 2.1m2 /3 compiled for JDK1.3 which is what Websphere 5 is using (yea, been there!) I get an interesting exception during the JSP processing, seemingly relating to an internal Classloader problem. There seems to be nothing I can configure within WSAD (the IBM dev program built on eclipse) to affect server parameters, I've traced the class-loader to be related to a 'trace server' (http://publib7b.boulder.ibm.com/wasinfo1/en/info/aes/ae/utrb_traceservi ce.html )... Has anyone had cocoon running under websphere 5? Thanks, Andy.
