Cannot get JSPReader/JSPGenerator to work

Tue, 03 Oct 2006 23:35:31 -0700

I am new to Cocoon (BTW, and its very cool) and am trying to get Cocoon to handle a JSP page to be processed... but it does not work.

(My setup is running Cocoon 2.1.9 under Tomcat 5)

First, I tried the JSP block welcome page and it also does not work for me. The IE browser window shows empty and the "View Source" results in only the following:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML><HEAD>
<META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

Looking at the "WEB-INF/classes/org/apache/..." the JSPReader and JSPGenerator classes are not present. There is a 'cocoon-jsp-block.jar' under WEB-INF/lib, though.  I do not know when Cocoon would go to this Jar file instead of the classes dir. Is there a problem in my setup?

Finally, I modified the build's local.block.properties file to make sure that the jsp block is included... This resulted in the same result.

What am I doing wrong?

The end goal I am trying to get to is for Cocoon to use the Tomcat JSP engine... Is that unreasonable?
