Thanks Vadim I checked the call via a 'GET' (not POST) and saw it was OK (as below)- but found out the trouble was that there was no 'fallback' match to process the form when NO db action was required e.g. calling a blank form.
Oh well, it took a while but the message is clear: 'If you don't understand the pipeline your'e ...in trouble!!'

Where is the cocoon-action request parameter, which should have name of the action to be executed? Try: docs/samples/forms/form_chemicals?id=123&cocoon-action-<action-name>=som ething (new syntax) or docs/samples/forms/form_chemicals?id=123&cocoon-action=<action-name> (old, deprecated syntax) Vadim > (similar to the forms/employee sample) > > The actions are the same as those in the existing (sample) sitemap: > <map:actions> > <map:action name="add-dbentry" > src="org.apache.cocoon.acting.DatabaseAddAction"/> > <map:action name="del-dbentry" > src="org.apache.cocoon.acting.DatabaseDeleteAction"/> > <map:action name="upd-dbentry" > src="org.apache.cocoon.acting.DatabaseUpdateAction"/> > </mapaction> > > and actionset > > <map:action-sets> > <map:action-set name="dbentry"> > <map:act type="add-dbentry" action="Add"/> > <map:act type="del-dbentry" action="Delete"/> > <map:act type="upd-dbentry" action="Update"/> > </map:action-set> > </map:action-sets> > > As you can see, I have not written any new code here... how/ > where do I put the debug code in or check the result of the action > as nothing seems to be happening? > > Sorry for seeming obtuseness... this looks like it should be a > simple task to carry out but I still confused as to why the basics > are not working. > > Thansk for the patience > > Derek > > > >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 19/03/2002 10:31:32 >>> > I don't know how you are invoking this pipeline (what URL looks like), > and what actions are in the set, but is should choose an action based > on > the (IIRC, never used this ;) cocoon-action request parameter - its > value should match action name.
