Johannes Just curious - is there a pressing reason to use 2.2? Why not download and work with 2.1 (which ships with the sample code you requested). Again, IMO, 2.2 still needs more work - esp. docs and simple examples - in making it accessible to the "average" user.

I have already searched on http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/ on how I can etablish a database connection. You need an entry int your web.xml and in your cocoon.xconf for example. Where is the cocoon.xconf in 2.2? Where can I define my datasources? Where can I get the code of the sample? Johannes Derek Hohls schrieb: > Johannes > > Good question!
