I am new to trying to use cocoon for a command line application and I had an error in my sitemap where I had:
<map:generator type="sbnf"> rather than the <map:generator name="sbnf"> that I should have. The errors that I got were no help whatsoever. It threw a ClassNotFoundException, but it did not name the class that wasn't found and it came in the debugging log at this point: DEBUG 2002-12-06 02:57:20.308 [manager ] (): ComponentHandler initialized for: org.apache.cocoon.transformation.TraxTransformer DEBUG 2002-12-06 02:57:20.309 [manager ] (): Adding org.apache.cocoon.transformation.TraxTransformer for xslt DEBUG 2002-12-06 02:57:20.319 [manager ] (): ComponentHandler initialized for: org.apache.cocoon.serialization.XMLSerializer And so I kept trying to figure out what was wrong with the serializer. And the only description that comes out is: ComponentSelector could not find the component for hint: (Since the name was wrong it doesn't have a name to put in as the hint.) It was just really tough to find the error in the file because of my lack of familiarity and I wanted to suggest that a more descriptive exception is throw for this error.
