Re: 2.1 -dev / sunRise,sunSpot version

[Mark Eggers]

Richard,

I'm not using quite the latest version from CVS, but
close to it.  I just haven't gotten around to checking
out the latest version and building it.

I've never gone after the snapshots, but have always
checked it out of cvs.

Since I am on Windows/2000 Pro, getting a reasonable
version of CVS is somewhat problematic.  I have found
jCVS (http://www.jcvs.org/) to be a reasonable GUI
interface that works well.  One of these days I'll
install CVS in cygwin and then I'll be much happier.

Once you check out xml-cocoon2 from the CVS
repository, you'll need to build it.  In 2.1, the
library structure has changed a little bit, and you
now need to put local jars (jfor, activation, jndi,
etc.) in xml-cocoon2/lib/local.

Once you have your local jars in place, you can build
the war package with:

build -Dinclude.webapp.libs=yes
-Dinclude.scratchpad.libs=yes
-Dinstall.war=%TOMCAT_HOME%\webapps webapp

(I prefer to copy the war in by hand).  You may not
have TOMCAT_HOME set, so use CATALINA_HOME
instead.(Should this be mentioned in the build docs?)

Cocoon should deploy nicely on Tomcat and be
accessible via http://localhost:8080/cocoon/.  You'll
notice that the 2.1-dev software maps you to the
documentation by default.  To get to the samples, just
go to http://localhost:8080/cocoon/samples/.

I just checked my version of the portal application,
and the portal comes up correctly.  I have not stress
tested it, since I am nowhere near that point in my
development cycle.

Please note that since you are dealing with bleeding
edge development software, there are examples and
functionality that may be temporarily broken.  That's
the price you pay for being at the edge.

That said, I have found that as time progresses Cocoon
2.1 gets more and more robust.  Sounds like the Apache
and Cocoon teams have a great model for development. 
I am continually impressed with the software that has
been made available from the Apache organization.

/mde/

just my two cents . . . .

  Subject: 2.1 -dev / sunRise,sunSpot 
  version
  
  Hi Guys,
   
  I have downloaded the latest snapshot... is this 
  suppose to be the 2.1 -dev???
   
  Built the src too many times using webapp or 
  installwar parameters, and I still cant do it right.
  I am seeing the welcome page but the samples 
  links are not working and the only link working is the 
  refactored samples link.
  What am i doing wrong? Or what did I didn't 
  do?
   
  Alternatively, what I have done is installed the 
  latest binary release v2.0.3 and then build the latest
  snapshot using installwar. Now, of course it'll 
  be runnning okay because of the binary release but,
   
  Do I have the latest version from the 2.1 
  -dev ( if the latest cvs snapshot is the 2.1 -dev ) 

  Is there a way to check if the portal components 
  are in the main branch???
   
  Thanks in advance
   
  Richard

On the first, there is a note in
xml-cocoon2/lib/local.

On the second, you might try typing out the
environment variable and putting quotes around it,
like:

"C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\webapps"

Hi Mark / Guys,

What exactly was you problem with w2k and win cvs?
I'm asking this because I have managed to download the latest cvs version
( i think with no problem ), although I still have the same problem (
samples are not working ) after building the war file..

Any other ideas

Thanks a lot

Richard

Re: 2.1 -dev / sunRise,sunSpot version

[Richard Reyes]

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the prompt reply..

I'm downloading the jcvs right now and ill try  waht you have said.

when you said...

> Once you check out xml-cocoon2 from the CVS
> repository, you'll need to build it.  In 2.1, the
> library structure has changed a little bit, and you

Can you elaborate on this?
Can I find this on the documentation?

and

> build -Dinclude.webapp.libs=yes
> -Dinclude.scratchpad.libs=yes
> -Dinstall.war=%TOMCAT_HOME%\webapps webapp

Using this syntax, im having a problem with my tomcat_home env. variable.
After running the build command it prompts me an error, because my tomcat
home is
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1 and it doesnt like the space
between program files and apache group folders. Any ideas?


Thanks in advance

Richard
