Hi Mark, Thanks for the prompt reply..
I'm downloading the jcvs right now and ill try waht you have said. when you said... > Once you check out xml-cocoon2 from the CVS > repository, you'll need to build it. In 2.1, the > library structure has changed a little bit, and you > now need to put local jars (jfor, activation, jndi, > etc.) in xml-cocoon2/lib/local. Can you elaborate on this? Can I find this on the documentation? and > build -Dinclude.webapp.libs=yes > -Dinclude.scratchpad.libs=yes > -Dinstall.war=%TOMCAT_HOME%\webapps webapp Using this syntax, im having a problem with my tomcat_home env. variable. After running the build command it prompts me an error, because my tomcat home is C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1 and it doesnt like the space between program files and apache group folders. Any ideas?
