My query relates to how one goes about offering Cocoon through virtual 
hosting. I have Cocoon 2.0 installed on one of our live web servers 
alongside Apache and Tomcat 4.0.1. I have Apache talking to Tomcat 
talking to Cocoon. I have mounted the installed cocoon webapp under 
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/cocoon to a context for a single domain (say for 
now www.thedomain.com). I can now access 
www.thedomain.com/cocoon/welcome and I see the usual welcome page and I 
can look at various XML, XSP, FOP pages, etc.

So far so good, but how do I go about offering this on a virtual basis?  
The documentation for cocoon is fine, but doesn't really address virtual 
hosting (at least I don't think it does). If its there then I wasn't 
able to understand it. This list and the archives tend to be geared 
towards single site web applications. And there are very few web hosting 
companies offering cocoon so there hasn't been much from that direction 
on this list.

I am using mod_jk (ajp 1.3) for getting apache to talk to 
tomcat/catalina. I have included "JkMount /cocoon/* ajp13" as part of 
httpd.conf. As part of server.xml under the Host entry for 
www.thedomain.com I have:
         <Context path="/cocoon"
         docBase="/opt/jakarta-tomcat-4.0.1/webapps/cocoon" debug="0"/>

This is fine for getting the samples to work, but where do I go next for 
virtual hosting of customer web applications?  Can I change the docBase 
to a directory within the virtual site space and get XML processed by 
Cocoon by having the correct web.xml within WEB-INF?

Any help appreciated. Once I am fully happy with this I will get the 
site added to the cocoon hosting page.

Regards,

Larkin Cunningham
