installing milestone release




hi,
i'm trying to install the milestone release. why are there two folders
after unzipping? i thought i would get some sort of .war file that i
could - as usually - stick into tomcat/webapp?
when i copy the milestone webapp folder into tomcat/webapps and then go
to http://localhost:8080/cocoon i get a blank page.
i built cocoon with the command: .\build.bat -Dinclude.webapp.libs=yes
webapp
in the beginning it said that xerces & Co. files were not found.
i did copy them into C:\j2sdk1.4.1_02\jre\lib\endorsed.
also did i set environment variables JAVA_HOME and CATALINA_HOME.
can someone tell me what i' doing wrong?
many thanks!
ines

Build instructions have changed for this Cocoon release.

To build a war: simply use "build.bat war"

Also, be sure to read the INSTALL.txt file.

It looks like you're installing with instructions from the
website, which are specific to 2.0.x release.  To install the
M1 build of 2.1, make sure you read and follow the instructions
in INSTALL.txt.  To get a war file, you'll simply do build.bat war
if that isn't specified in that doc.

The -Dinclude.webapp.libs parameter is no longer needed - the
default build properties now include everything needed to
build the webapp.  The install doc covers the use of
properties files to customize the build but for a "test drive"
build, no changes are necessary.

Finally, note that you're not using tomcat's endorsed directory.
Tomcat overrides jre\lib\endorsed and uses
%TOMCAT_HOME%\common\endorsed instead, so you'll need to move the
endorsed files there.  In M1, those files are located in
[Cocoon-dir]\lib\endorsed.  Note also that there have been a
few bugs discovered with the version of xerces shipped in M1
and you may want to replace it with the newer version that will
be in M2, which is available from the cvs repo.
