Andy I am assuming that Cocoon cannot connect to the DB; the issue is why. The browser hangs indefinitely, and there is no message in the cocoon.log. Also, there does not appear to be ant errors.log or handled-errors.log files in the "cocoon/WEB-INF/logs" directory ... should there be? The app and DB are running on the same machine (though in future they may be on different machines).

You say "there is no further response" - how long are you waiting? I'm not sure about the other database components, but certainly in the case of the SQLTransformer if it can't get a connection it will (by default) retry 5 times at 5 second intervals, so it could be 30 seconds before you actually get an error message returned. And if it's waiting on a TCP-level timout ConnectException (e.g. because the port is blocked by a firewall and the packets are being dropped rather than actually rejecting the connection) that could involve a 20 second timeout in itself... I'd have thought you'd still see something in Cocoon's errors.log or handled-errors.log, though. You say you can access the database okay yourself; is the application running locally on the same machine, or is it deployed on some other server?
