Now, let's figure out why it was failing. I was following the tutorial on http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/howto/howto-html-pdf-publishing.html and I obtained the site map contents from their. If the site map was missing something, how did you know that this is caused by the contents of the cocoon.xconf ??
The cause of problem I can usually get from the error message, that's probably something you learn with the time.
This tells me that the sitemap is read before cocoon.xconf, and contents of the later has to be initialized by the former ! Am I right ?
It's first the web application with web.xml that get's loaded, then the CocoonServlet with cocoon.xconf and at the end (per request) the sitemap.xmap. Why do you think sitemap is read before cocoon.xconf?
Actually both cocoon.xconf and sitemap have their components section which even became interchangeable in Cocoon 2.1. I think this support has been dropped or limited in 2.2 as it might be too confusing. And Cocoon 2.2 has now the blocks which allow local declaration of components anyway so that this feature in sitemaps is superfluous. Yes, up to 2.1 cocoon.xconf specifies global components while sitemaps declare local components. All the stuff in the root sitemap is about reasonable defaults, you can declare or overwrite them in any sub sitemap as well.
