Hi Mark, You are so sweet for trying it out for me! And I am really happy to hear that the configuration works and that I'm not insain.
I think I may know where the problem lies now. As I gave up Cocoon a bit and thought I would write my own servlet to access the database, I used the source code on http://xml.apache.org/xindice/guide-developer.html#Diving+in+With+an+Example+Program and changed the details to work with my database. When I run it, it gives me XML:DB Exception occured 1 A connection to the Database instance 'db' could not be created. Error: Connection refused so I think that maybe that's the error that Cocoon is getting as well, although it doesn't report it. I mean, if I can't even connect to the database with a simple command line java class, I can't really expect Cocoon to either. My only theory is that my faculty has some unfriendly security settings, or something along those lines. So I guess I'm off to the xindice user group now... Again, thanks for all your help. And if anyone happens to have come across the Connection Refused error... ;-) All the best, Nina > Nina, > > I tried reproducing your issue on Fedora Core 1.
