Hi Ron,
If you haven't seen it already, see the last post by Mark. What's at
the wiki page referred to, http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/Installing,
suggests the problem is related to how one's Linux distro does the
installation of ant -- which would suggest it's up to the distro users to
fix it. If i can do that for SuSE (9.3), time permitting, will do and send
fix location to list. -- cheers, andi
