I've tried using cocoon2 with JBoss 2.4.4 and Tomcat 4.0.3 and couldn't get it to work. When I installed Tomcat 4.0.4b2 everything worked. I think some other people on this list also had problems with 4.0.3.

But I get the following error (see below) - NullPointerException trying to put the default context. I've tried just deploying the .war file which fails. So I've tried the install instructions (http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/installing/index.html) even though JBoss 3 isn't mentioned, for TomCat 4.0.3 reference but I still get the same problem. Basically, I tried adding xerces, xalan, xml-apis, batik-libs to the catalina/common/lib/ directory - but no joy here, so I also unjarred cocoon, edited WEB-INF/web.xml and added the extra-classpath param, re-jarred it but this made no difference. I also tried the Catalina reference, removing crimson & jaxp, adding xml-apis to jboss/lib and adding it to the classpath when starting JBoss. I also tried adding the following to cocoon.xconf, again with no difference: <parameter name="transformer-factory" value="org.apache.xalan.processor.TransformerFactoryImpl"/> I also trawled through the mailing list archives but found nothing that worked. Does someone have it working and can point me in the right direction? What step have I missed? Many TIA...I have battled for a couple of days with this, but I am running out of things to try.
