Re: background task management
Hi David, I am interested in your background task manager. I downloaded your document and your code from Bugzilla and found that several source files are missing. e.g. the Actions described in the document and com.dotech.cocoon.environment.thread.BackgroundThreadEnvironment used by the FileUploadTask. I'm specially interested in calling a cocoon pipeline from a background thread. Am I right that the BackgroundThreadEnvironment is responsible for that? Maybe you can upload the missing source files to bugzilla. Regards, Peter BTW: I would not recommend to use Microsoft Word files for documentation in an open source project. Especially if it's not bound to the Microsoft Windows platform. Better you use plain text, html or xml for contributing documentation.

Re: background task management
Hi David, there are still missing the sources for com.dotech.cocoon.environment.thread.BackgroundThreadEnvironment and com.dotech.messaging.Message to compile all classes. The latter one is less interesting, but the BackgroundThreadEnvironment seems to be pretty cocoon specific ;-) I would suggest you to create a complete source package with sitemap.xmap and cocoon.xconf snippets (already in user documentation) which can be easily compiled and testet. I think this will raise the changes that a commiter will review and commit the code. Do I unterstand correct that the BackgroundThreadEnvironment is some kind of FakeEnvironment (no output/no input)? I digged a bit around in your code and in the cocoon core and environment code and now I am a bit confused about using different Environments with the same Cocoon instance. What I was wondering about is that you use the HTTPEnvironment to resolve (and construct) a Source object (in UploadTaskAction) and later use your own BackgroundThreadEnvironment (in FileUploadTask) to process the source. Does this work without problems? What I want to do is generating PDF files in a background thread triggered by a HTTP request. I guess I have to use the FileSavingEnvironment to do this. I am somehow curious how to correctly use Cocoon and the CocoonComponentManager to do this. Can you give me some hints or point to some docs about this? Is this the following code the right approach? env = new FileSavingEnvironment(...); Processor processor = (Processor)this.componentManager.lookup(Processor.ROLE); processor.process(environment); Thank You, Peter David Kavanagh [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Peter, Thanks for finding the omission. I've uploaded a zip including the two actions. Yes, that environment object was needed to keep the underlying code happy. I don't do anything with the pipeline results.

Re: I feel stupid. COCOON + TOMCAT
Hi Mauro, check the tomcat logfiles in $TOMCAT_HOME/logs. There should be hint to what went wrong. -peter Von: Mauro Daniel Ardolino [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi! I think I'll go mad. About a week ago I was trying to install cocoon on tomcat on windows: I couldn't and I thought it was a windows problem. Some of you were trying to help me. Now after some changes I am working on RH73. I've installed Tomcat 4.1.12 and still can't make cocoon to deploy. I downloaded the cocoon 2.0.3 binary distribution, and put the cocoon.war inside the tomcat_home/webapps folder. I restarted Tomcat and nothing happens. The folder cocoon does not apear inside webapps and of course I'm not seeing the http://localhost:8080/cocoon presentation page. I feel really stupid. What am I doing wrong (again)?

Re: Strange Netscape Behavior
Netscape 4.x has some trouble with UTF-* encoding - better you use ISO-8859-1. Encoding of the serializer can be configured in the sitemap's component definition. map:serializer name=html mime-type=text/html src=org.apache.cocoon.serialization.HTMLSerializer encodingISO-8859-1/encoding /map:serializer - peter PS: I don't know why this isn't the standard configuration for the HTMLSerializer. I think its the default encoding of HTML versions 4 and the most used on the net. This is also s.th. for the FAQ. -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: Henrik Hofmann [EMAIL PROTECTED] Well, I think I found the problem, its about the encoding and other META Tags in the Header. After saving the source to text and deleting the Meta Tags I opend the page again and it looked normal. Saved the now normal source again and put the Metatag in it it was messed up again. The Tag was the one from the serializer for UTF-8 encoding. When I switched it manually to UTF-16 it worked. There were also some other Meta Tags for caching information. Some combinations of encoding tag together with caching worked some didn't and I couldn't see any system in it. When I look at the Cocoon start page its also UTF-8 and everything is fine. Can I change or configure the html serializer so it serializes with UTF-16 in the Header instead of UFT-8? bye - Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've cross posted in the hopes that the feedback and solutions will be quicker. According to various sources, cocoon2rc1a and tomcat4 can be run together if: - crimson.jar and jaxp.jar in the tomcat_home/common/lib directory are replaced by xerxes and xalan from the cocoon2 distribution. - all other steps in the build, install documentation are completed as documented for tomcat4.0 this enables the cocoon demo pages to be run, provided the tomcat server is operating in console mode. On win2k it is possible to run tomcat as a service. Because of issues with classpaths when running as a service, the cocoon servlet environment does not work. http://www.pigbite.co.uk/ctwig/index.html notes this problem and suggests changes to a file called tomcat_home\conf\wrapper.properties to update classpath information regarding xerxes and xalan presumably. Unfortunately wrapper.properties does not exist in my/the tomcat4.0 distribution. this is the windows MSI installation package. (wrapper.properties does not exist in the zip distribution either, by the way.) Can anyone suggest - whether classpaths are in fact the issue with cocoon2, tomcat and win2k service? - where to find the file(s) in tomcat that duplicate the functionality of wrapper.properties with respect to classpaths? thanks for your help....edN - Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Please check that your question has not already been answered in the FAQ before posting. http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faqs.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
