Our setup Windows 2000 server Apache 2.0.49 J2SDK1.4.2_03 Tomcat 5.0.18 Cocoon 2.1.5.1
We use the mod_jk2 connector to pass requests to Tomcat. We had tried IIS-Tomcat isapi connector, but the Apache-Tomcat connector is easier to setup, and I would guess, more efficient. Currently, we have a few sets of static files that are served from Apache using the RedirectMatch directive. At some future time we plan to serve all static files, images, PDF, Word, etc., directly from Apache. Reason being that Apache is better at serving static content, especially large files, than Cocoon. Our web page content is stored as XML flat files in the Windows file system. All resources are stored in one directory structure. Cocoon uses XML source from a content directory, Apache serves images and documents from other directories, but all are under one site directory. Fairly easy to maintain. We are also using Cocoon for other purposes. We are using Cocoon to publish helps screens for web based applications. The following link http://commerce.wi.gov/apphelptest/demo.html will take you to a web page with the various help buttons that will appear in the application screens. Press a button, and a help screen for that section of the application appears. Want to view all help information, just click on the Show all help information link. When all help information appears, you can narrow down to a specific section by clicking on the Show this section only link. All help information for each application is maintained in an XML file specific for that application. XML Mind XML Editor version 2.8 is used for content management. We have a couple of other "non commerce.wi.gov" uses for Cocoon, but I won't bore you with more details. Gary T.
