Problems running FOP

[Ma...@mlp-ag.com]

Hi, I have some difficulties running Fop and I´m trying to fix it for more than
a day now.
When I´m trying to start Fop from command line, it returns:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFound Error:
org/apache/avalon/framework/logger/loggable

I was able to fix some similar Exceptions by adding various jar-files to the
classpath, in fact I added (almost?) every jar-file... from
avalon-framework-4.1.1.jar to xerces-jar, but it won´t help.
I´m using fop-version 0.20.3 and I have installed xalan (which runs
perfectly...).

Can somebody please help?

Is it possible to dynamically number lines in FO ?

This sounds like avalon-framework-4.0.jar is missing.

Mmmh .. Fop should work "out of the box" from the commandline.
All needed jars are in the lib/ directory and fop.bat/fop.sh adds
them to the classpath. Which OS are you using?

How are you trying to run FOP? The error is related to logkit that ships
with FOP. In the distribution there should be a script call fop.sh or
fop.bat if you run that with the following syntax:

Fop.sh -xml <name of xml file> -xsl <path to style sheet> -pdf <name of PDF>

It should work
