RE: [ANN/OT] xreporter 1.1 release - Avalon/Cocoon-based web database reporting

2003-03-14 Thread Sean McKaharay
Well I am currently using xReporter with my company (Greenbrier  Russel). I
just implemented a solution for Harland (you know the check cashing place).
Until now they have been producing reports with jsp pages. Although it was
fine, it took a programmer to change anything and it never had a consistent
look and feel. When I first saw xReporter it was on 1.0 and I loved it. When
I was asked to give my opinion on it, I recommended that they start to move
all their reporting needs to xReporter. You can set up different datasources
for each project that need reports and you can set up users to see what they
need to see. I then started completing the project and 1.1 came out and I
loved (skins) so much I upgraded the project to 1.1. Create a skin for them
and let them know if they ever wanted to change the skin it would be no
problem. It took me all of about 3 hours to go from 1.0 to 1.1 and it takes
me about 15 minutes to create the report. All the time is spent making sure I
have the right sql and not on thinks like are my columns to wide All I
can say I can't wait for each release and see how much this grows. Thanks
everyone for all the help and I hope I can help in the future.

RE: Problem on start !

2003-02-26 Thread Sean McKaharay
First thing Robert,
 
What server are you running on (i.e. tomcat, resin, jetty..). You need to
look that you don't have an old version of SAX parser in the lib directory of
the server. Sometimes the SAX parser it will try to use is the one in the lib
directory of the Server.

Cheap Cocoon Hosting

2003-02-24 Thread Sean McKaharay
I went to the Cocoon website and it gives a list of hosting providers that
will support Cocoon. I have a hosting provider but they just told me there is
no way they were going to do anything for Cocoon. Does any use a hosting
company that is cheap and has Cocoon support and what is your experience?
 
Thanks

Hello Sean,

24 Feb 2003, 17:05:27:

SM Does anyone know how to fix it?

are you sure you have set up the cocoon to work with sunRise and
the those other quite 'fragile' components?

because as you see other examples on your server do work fine

Cocoon and Eclipse

2003-02-16 Thread Sean McKaharay
I found the website that talked about building Cocoon so it will work with
eclipse, but the parameters don't work. I try to do build eclipse-project
but it says that eclipse-project is not a good parameter. Does anyone have
any idea how to make cocoon work with eclipse?
 
Thanks



RE: Reporting Engine

xReporter...I am using xReporter right now. It takes a little time to
understand all the stylesheets but I think it works great for reporting.

Subject: Reporting Engine



I have been tasked to build/find/modify a reporting engine inside
cocoon.  I have looked at the POI project, and it will not fit, as we
don't want Excel to be the client.  I am hoping for any information
on
any engines that people have used inside cocoon, or if anyone knows
of
any engines that are XML based that could be integrated.  Our ideal
solution would be:

1. Has an XML based template mechanism to let end users create
templates.
2. Uses XSL to translate to HTML/PDF.  (We can build these, but if
the
engine has them already, great)
3. Has a mechanism for plugging in SQL into the pipeline for the data
to
put in the template.  (We can build this as well, but if it is
already
in there, great)

Thanks in advance for any info.

Irv

Newbie

2003-02-06 Thread Sean McKaharay
I just started looking at Cocoon and I find the portal piece really nice. I
tried building the src with the correct option but I don't know how to build
and deploy the portal piece. When you run the option and then build it comes
up with 2 jar files. Are they independent files or do they get dropped in the
web-apps directory and explode by themselves?
 
Any help would be great
