Hi, I am a recent convert (only two weeks old) to Java, Tomcat et al from the world of Microsoft ASP and .Net. As such please forgive me for asking what I'm sure is a very basic question. However, I have checked the Cocoon FAQ's, read my books (Java, JavaServer Pages, Java and XML, O'Reilly) and searched the mail archive still drawing a blank.
Basically I have installed Cocoon according to the instructions on the site (http://xml.apache.org/cocoon1/install.html) and also those in 'Java and XML Ch10 P.248 and I get the message: "Wrapper cannot find servlet class org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon or a class it depends on" (I include the complete error message below for your reference) I am Using: Win98 (boo hoo) Java 1.3.1 Tomcat 4.1.24 Cocoon 1.8.2 I also have Personal Web Server installed but I have made no attempt to connect the two. Tomcat works fine: I have run several example scripts without fail. I have checked over my Cocoon installation several times and over several days (to allow for the "I DID do it right I'm SURE factor"). I have noticed that I need to set up the files [TOMCAT HOME]/conf/server.xml slightly differently from the instructions which tell me to use the value: <Context path="/cocoon" docbase="webapps/cocoon"... I find this returns a 404 and only if I set it to <Context path="/cocoon" docbase="cocoon"... or remove it completely does it work. I assume this is down to my Tomcat being 4.1.24 rather than Brett McLaughlin's (Java and XML, O'Reilly) Tomcat 3.2.1 the comments preceding the section in the document supporting this: "Define properties for each web application. This is only needed if you want to set non-default properties, or have web application document roots in places other than the virtual host's appBase directory" I have concluded (rightly or wrongly) the problem is that it can't find the cocoon.properties file which is referenced by the [TOMCAT HOME]/webapps/cocoon/WEB-INF/web.xml. The instructions tell me to set this to WEB-INF/cocoon.properties which I have tried but I have also played around with this value as cocoon/WEB-INF/cocoon.properties and cocoon.properties without success. I know it's a relative path so I haven't tried any absolute paths. It currently looks like this: <servlet> <servlet-name>org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>properties</param-name> <param-value>WEB-INF/cocoon.properties</param-value> </init-param> </servlet> Any help would be gratefully appreciated: I don't have much hair left to pull out!!
