Thanks to all who provided advice. I finally have it working. Here are two things I did discover:
= I had to try different classpath settings before I finally got it to work. = I was using the wrong table name referencing, a hold over from my ASP/PHP scripting experience. I still need to clean some things up before I'm fully satisfied. After I clean it up I will see if I have anything to offer to the wiki and cocoon center documentation. Gary T.

Anything special to > cocoon.xconf, > web.xml, sitemap.xmap or other configuration files? I have been using Cocoon with Oracle since the days of Cocoon 1.7, with Oracle 7, 8, 8i, 9 and 10g. Never had much of a problem. I have almost 20 live Cocoon applications on Oracle at the moment. If the datasource times out with a message like "Failed to obtain connection. Made 5 attempts with 5000ms interval" it's probable that either your datasource parameters are incorrectly specified or you have networking problems. I'd be glad to offer a more direct help, but you'have to pay me a business-class ticket to Wisconsin ;-) Ugo -- Ugo Cei - http://beblogging.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
