Good, I got lost trying to use references to sitemap.xmap as an example last night -- ended up having to revert everything. > > Anyway, so I can successfully take the /locationmap/demo.xml and > > return a real demo.xml from 127.0.0.1:8080/slide/files/demo.xml (my > > slide repo).

Are you able to confirm that > the file is being read from slide correctly? Well, it appears that the hello2document.xsl in the local sitemap.xmap is the culprit. Probably should have figured something so simple. I commented the transform line out and it's at least giving me my document back. And yes, now I'm able to confirm that it is coming from Slide (and after the other change the fresh-site in SVN).

I've got maps set up for both since I don't really understand *how* this is really working yet, I'm doing some serious trial and error and covering all bases. So for each, here's what i get: demo.html - what i've learned (thanks) is now the equivalent of body-demo.html, seems it stops processing there and never applies the skin. I'm getting no errors and the core log is of no help. demo.xml - the unprocessed, straight xml from SVN's freshsite. > Could you modify your code to retrieve that page rather than a slide one > and put a patch against http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-200 I'm not sure what you mean, I've taken what you had and (minus that one config thing) it just worked. Obviously, I've manipulated the location a bit but nothing else really. I haven't really *done* anything yet:) --tim
