Using Cocoon's build system for my webapp
Hello Cocoon'ers,
It's been a long while since I've done any Cocoon work. I've been playing with
the new (to me) build system and so far I like it. I've been able to easily
pair down the build with the local blocks and build properties.
Now I want to start setting up the sitemap and writing some custom components.
I'd like to use the current build system but I'm getting some errors. Maybe
it's not the right way to do it, but so far I haven't seen any documentation
on what the suggested build setup is.
First I figured I'd edit the sitemap in src/webapp. I removed some unneeded
matchers and quickly got errors with confpatch, specifically mount-table. I
added back the api section to the sitemap just to get going, but I wonder
what the correct solution is.
Should I create my own target xml file? Should I remove mount-table.xmap from
src/confpatch ?
My second issue has to do with components. I want to wrap an object as an
Avalon component and have it instantiated when Cocoon is launched. Before I
did this with a user.roles file and editing cocoon.xconf. I went to the
documentation to make sure I remembered how to do it, but I couldn't find
much, just one reference to creating a my.roles file. To use the build system
would I just put my.roles in the src/webapp/WEB-INF directory?
My big concern is that it'll be difficult to upgrade when a new version of
Cocoon comes out. On the other hand I've created a nice minimal Cocoon setup,
but I might need more blocks later. I like the idea of being able to edit
local.blocks.properties and get the blocks I need, and then rebuild my whole
webapp.
Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Justin

Yep, there is:

Re: Access to user role

I just checked: on that non-initial page (xslt/common.xsl) the

What is that:
/root/secure:securityProfile/secure:roles/secure:role[.="mbr-user"]'
?
Is that a page parameter, securityProfile or retrieved from the
database? Any pointers ?
I am new to Cocoon and XSLT.

Access to user role
Posted by Oleg Konovalov <ol...@yahoo.com>.
Hi,
I am modifying somebody else's Cocoon application.
I need to disallow users with some specific role
to see certain parts of the screen (pseudo-menu).
An existing mechanism for that is:
<xsl:variable name='isUser'
select='/root/secure:securityProfile/secure:roles/secure:role[.="mbr-user"]'/>
...
<xsl:if test='not($isUser)'>
<td><a href="sil/main_sil" target="_parent">
<img src="images/common/sitenav.gif" width="114" height="45"
border="0" /></a></td>
</xsl:if>
That "mbr-user" role is configured in web.xml & database,
the user has this role [defined in the database].
That seems to work on initial page [index.xsl],
but doesn't work on subsequent pages (in another folder).
Any clues why it doesn't and how to fix that?
(everything else works fine)
Thank you in advance,
Oleg.

Access to the app root only
Posted by Oleg Konovalov <ol...@yahoo.com>.
Hi,
I am trying to configure my Cocoon application
so that particular role has access only to
the app root [login.xsl, index.xsl]
but not to other directories.
But is seems that as soon as I put "/" or "/*",
it gets access to all directories under the root.
Snippet from web.xml:
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>App Root only</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>role1</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
How do I restrict access to the root only ?
Thank you in advance,
Oleg.

RE: Using Cocoon's build system for my webappThanks Ada,
Posted by Adam Ratcliffe <ad...@mrigitech.com>.
Hi Justin
Your component doesn't need to be a singleton, unless you want it to be, in
which
case it should implement the Avalon
org.apache.avalon.framework.thread.ThreadSafe interface.
My understanding is that the container (ECM) pools component instances, with
the pool
parameters configurable in cocoon.xconf. Maybe someone who is more familiar
with Cocoon
internals can give you some more pointers on pool configuration, to date I
haven't had any
problems with running with the system defaults.
The example I gave of looking up a component was using the flowscript
syntax. If you haven't
already read about flow it fulfils the controller role in cocoon MVC
applications, see
http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/flow/index.html. The sitemap matches
URIs to top-level
functions in the flow layer which in turn typically delegate business
functions to Java objects.
If you wanted to lookup your Avalon component from another component such as
a customer generator
you would use this syntax:
MyComponent comp =
(MyComponent)this.serviceManager.lookup(MyComponent.ROLE);
In this example your sitemap component would need to implement the
org.apache.avalon.framework.service.Servicable
interface so that it would be provided with a reference to the
ServiceManager when it was
instantiated.
As you may know the Avalon project has been closed, I believe some of the
docs have since been posted
to the Apache Excalibur site.
Cheers
Adam

Subject: Re: Using Cocoon's build system for my webappThanks Ada,
Thanks Adam,
You answered most of my questions.
The only thing left (assuming I understand the wiki docs) is that the
component I'm setting up need to be a singleton instantiated when Cocoon
launches.
I remember using a ComponentManager to get my components. I didn't use XSP
much though, so I'm wondering if this:
> var myComp = cocoon.getComponent(Packages.com.example.MyComponent.ROLE);
Is how I would do it inside a Generator, or if that's maybe XSP specific. Is
the cocoon object now passed to pipeline components through the objectModel?
Also, I need to make sure that the instance I get is the same that was
created
at launch time. This is setup in the sitemap, right?
Ahh, knockin the rust off.
Thanks again,
Justin

ErrorHandler problem

Hi,
I am deploying a bunch of Cocoon 2.04 apps
on JBoss 3.0.7/Tomcat 4.1.24 [& Apache 2.0.48] on Solaris 9.
Everything works fine, but when the server
is starting, getting the following errors in the console:

Is that a Cocoon or JBoss problem ?
[seem to be coming from Xerces JAR]
It doesn't seem to be harmful, but I would like
to get rid of it.
It happens on our testing server,

Any help is very appreciated.

I'm going to throw my usual "have a look at the supersonic tour" line
here ;-)
To run it you need to install a recent version of Cocoon (which is
really easy, just follow INSTALL.TXT in the distribution), start it and
go to the "samples / blocks with samples" page.
The tour will give you a quick overview of how to use Cocoon today, it
should give you a good starting point, but your mileage may of course
vary depending on what your application does and how it's built.

The Cocoon developer's handbook is a good book but very out of date.
XSP's are similar to JSPs and have many of the same problems. The use
of XSPs is not recommended in version 2.1 as their are better ways of
getting work done. The recommended approach is to use business objects
in conjunction with flowscript of javaflow. There is actually quite a
bit of information on this at the Cocoon web site, on the wiki and even
in a few published articles.
Having said all that, if you have an app developed in 2.0.4 it should be
converted to 2.1 fairly easily. The biggest change is that classes that
implement Composable must be converted to implement Serviceable instead.

Using Cocoon without XSPs
Posted by Oleg Konovalov <ol...@yahoo.com>.
Hi,
I am Cocoon newbie, trying to reverse-engineer
several Cocoon [2.0.4] apps written in 2002-2003
(original developers long gone, nobody around ever
worked with Cocoon). Deployed on JBoss 3.0.7.
Learning from "Cocoon Developer's Handbook" by Mocsar/Aston,
it looks like all Cocoon apps have to use XSP logicsheets.
However, there is absolutely no XSPs in these apps,
only Project.xmap, XSL, Java, XML, HTML, some SQL files.
Was XSP introduced in Cocoon 2?
How do you develop with Cocoon without XSPs ?
Judging by Java packages, it had Acting, Generation, Selection,
Tasks, Transformation, Data and Util.
And most SQL things are done in XSL/XML files.
There are tons on XSLs (under XSLT).
Is that what was used before/instead of XSPs ?
Are there any resources describing Cocoon development
without XSPs ?
Thank you in advance,
Oleg.

Error 403
Posted by Oleg Konovalov <ol...@yahoo.com>.
Hi,
I have a misterious problem:
a few users can not login to (only) one of my Cocoon
applications,
they are getting error 403 "Access to the requested resource has
been denied".
LDAP authentication (for them) is successfull, there are no
error messages in any logs, nothing looks suspicious.
These users have same access privileges as any others
and can login to the main app [sort of portal]
and all other apps [except that particular one,
either directly or through the link in the portal].
All other users can login to everything they are allowed.
I am new to Cocoon [and have to support cocoon apps
written by the people who are long gone].
Using Cocoon 2.0.4 on JBoss 3.0.7
I doubt that it is something like a bad cookie [or their PC
setting, or spyware],
because if I try to login as on of these unhappy users
from my PC, have the same problem, althoough can login there
as myself.
Any help is very appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Oleg.
P.S.: How do you debug Cocoon apps?
Small portion of it is written in Java [including
SecurityTransformer] Can I debug it from Eclipse ?
Any techniques to set it up ?

Re: MSAccess database problem
Posted by go...@osmosis.gr.
in windows platform you can create an ODBC entry for your .mdb file
and use the connection string:
jdbc:odbc:{your_dsn_entry}
that work for me

Hi All,

not working properly
1.I placed the jar in the lib
2.Added entry in load-class(web.xml)
3.database pool (cocoon.xconf)
<jdbc name="MSdb">

<auto-commit>false</auto-commit>
<dburl>jdbc:atinav:localhost:7227:d:\\testdatabase\db1.mdb</dburl>
<user></user>
<password></password>
</jdbc>
4.stated 3rd party service
Problem is nothing comming , when I place it in
simple xsp i.e,
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsp:page language="java"
xmlns:esql="http://apache.org/cocoon/SQL/v2"
xmlns:xsp="http://apache.org/xsp">
<emp>
<esql:connection>
<esql:pool>MSdb</esql:pool>
<esql:execute-query>
<esql:query>SELECT id,name,place FROM
emp</esql:query>
<esql:results>
<table>
<esql:row-results>
<tr>
<td><esql:get-string column="id"/></td>

<p>Sorry, no results!</p>
</esql:no-results>
</esql:execute-query>
</esql:connection>
<h1>Test</h1>
</emp>
</xsp:page>
when I use serialize type as html
nothing is comming.
when I use serialize type as xml
it is showing error (root tag is mandatory)[i can
guess i.e, because there is no data in response]
Any sugession will help a lot....
Is there any other way to access "MSAccess"
Thanks
yssr

Re: Using Cocoon's build system for my webappThanks Ada,
Posted by Justin Fagnani <ju...@fagnani.com>.
Thanks Adam,
You answered most of my questions.
The only thing left (assuming I understand the wiki docs) is that the
component I'm setting up need to be a singleton instantiated when Cocoon
launches.
I remember using a ComponentManager to get my components. I didn't use XSP
much though, so I'm wondering if this:
> var myComp = cocoon.getComponent(Packages.com.example.MyComponent.ROLE);
Is how I would do it inside a Generator, or if that's maybe XSP specific. Is
the cocoon object now passed to pipeline components through the objectModel?
Also, I need to make sure that the instance I get is the same that was created
at launch time. This is setup in the sitemap, right?
Ahh, knockin the rust off.
Thanks again,
Justin

RE: Using Cocoon's build system for my webapp
Posted by Adam Ratcliffe <ad...@mrigitech.com>.
Hi Justin
The Cocoon wiki has some good resources on tailoring the Cocoon webapp and
developing your project
against it, see http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/YourCocoonBasedProjectAnt16
and http://wiki.apache.org/cocoon/ProjectBuilding
The first doc has a link to an Ant build script that will help with setting
up a directory structure
that decouples your project's resources from the cocoon source tree, and
targets for patching the
cocoon configuration files with your project's specific configuration.
I've successfully used this approach to upgrade a webapp from the 2.1.5 to
2.1.6 release.
If you're already familiar with developing Avalon components for Cocoon
deploying them is
not too difficult. Briefly:
- Create your component roles file e.g.
<role-list>
<role name="com.example.MyComponent"
shorthand="myComp"
default-class="com.example.MyComponent"/>
...
</role-list>
- Register these with Cocoon by adding a 'user-roles' attribute to the root
element in cocoon.xconf
<cocoon user-roles="my.roles">
- The component's lifecycle methods will be invoked when you lookup/release
the component, for example
in flowscript:
var myComp = cocoon.getComponent(Packages.com.example.MyComponent.ROLE);

Subject: Using Cocoon's build system for my webapp
Hello Cocoon'ers,
It's been a long while since I've done any Cocoon work. I've been playing
with
the new (to me) build system and so far I like it. I've been able to easily
pair down the build with the local blocks and build properties.
Now I want to start setting up the sitemap and writing some custom
components.
I'd like to use the current build system but I'm getting some errors. Maybe
it's not the right way to do it, but so far I haven't seen any documentation
on what the suggested build setup is.
First I figured I'd edit the sitemap in src/webapp. I removed some unneeded
matchers and quickly got errors with confpatch, specifically mount-table. I
added back the api section to the sitemap just to get going, but I wonder
what the correct solution is.
Should I create my own target xml file? Should I remove mount-table.xmap
from
src/confpatch ?
My second issue has to do with components. I want to wrap an object as an
Avalon component and have it instantiated when Cocoon is launched. Before I
did this with a user.roles file and editing cocoon.xconf. I went to the
documentation to make sure I remembered how to do it, but I couldn't find
much, just one reference to creating a my.roles file. To use the build
system
would I just put my.roles in the src/webapp/WEB-INF directory?
My big concern is that it'll be difficult to upgrade when a new version of
Cocoon comes out. On the other hand I've created a nice minimal Cocoon
setup,
but I might need more blocks later. I like the idea of being able to edit
local.blocks.properties and get the blocks I need, and then rebuild my whole
webapp.
Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Justin
