Matthew, Thanks for the heads-up on tomcat installation. I followed the installation for Cocoon on 4.0.4 b1 with JDK 1.4.0 from the web site and except for DB access (because of 1.4) and sunspotdemo-portal, everything seems to work great.
I'm not real sure where to look for solving this problem but will be happy to follow any thoughts anyone might have. I would love to see the portal work!

Somebody else on the list can probably point out what is wrong better than I can at the moment (we still use Tomcat 3.3 :-)). Let me know if this helps.
