hi, newbie here trying to run the samples from the above book on linux.

dropped the war in to tomcat 4.0.1. with jdk1.4.1 and things went downhill

finaly gave up and installed 1.3.1_03 and the tomcat off the book's cd. 
(3.3.? final or something like that). (that's what the book says to do). 
has anyone made the sample work? if so, what versions of jdk and tomcat 
were you using?

what versions of tomcat, jdk and jdkee would you recommend in general?


it appears to work using:

cocoon-2.0.4/
j2sdk1.4.1_01/
jakarta-tomcat-4.1.18-LE-jdk14/

if you follow the instructions at 
http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/installing/index.html about copying the xalan and
xerces jars  (which are in lib, not lib/core). i don't know about the jdbc 
issue since afaik it is not using any jdbc.

thanks

I've use the latest version of Jetty without any issues so far.  It does 
not require any funky copying of xml*.jars anywhere as they are loaded as 
application specific resources by default in the case of cocoon.

i am used to tomcat. i may give jetty a try if all else fails.

thanks

Hi Ray -

I hope your other book is mine & Jeremy's - Cocoon Developer's Handbook 
;) The easiest configuration I've found is Tomcat 4.0.5 or greater, with 
JDK 1.3.x. I have been able to drop Cocoon 2.0.3/2.0.4 into Tomcat 
4.0.5/4.0.6/4.1.12 without any problems. Just note that if you build 
2.0.4 yourself, be sure in include the scratchpad libs. ...

no, but yours (and another are on the way from amazon). thanks to all of 
you who wrote these, they make learning new stuff like cocoon *much* easier.

The easiest configuration I've found is Tomcat 4.0.5 or greater, with JDK 
1.3.x. I have been able to drop Cocoon 2.0.3/2.0.4 into Tomcat 
4.0.5/4.0.6/4.1.12 without any problems. Just note that if you build 2.0.4 
yourself, be sure in include the scratchpad libs.

ok, will give it a try.

thanks
