C2 Sitemap Error with BEA WLS 6.0 SP1 on RH7.0

[Ka...@cs.com]

Hi! 
After going through all the mails regarding this internal error Sitemap 
Handlers's sitemap not found.... I tried all the fixes fitting to my case but 
I cannot figure out a way to correct this problem.

The problem the log shows is a ClassNotFound Error for a velocity packaged 
class.  I  added the JAR file in the cocoon/lib directory to the CLASSPATH of 
the startWebLogic.sh file in the <WL_HOME>/config/<server>/ directory but all 
in vain.

The CLASSPATH has all other JARS from the cocoon/lib/ directory too.

The complete log is attached. Here the snapshot of the two errors:

The platform and environment:

RedHat 7.0
Bea Weblogic Server 6.0 with service pack 1.


I don't know what to do now. The jar file is in the classpath. I added the 
.war file to the aaplication directory of my default server. I can start 
weblogic without any errors..

If any of the experts knows where could be the problem, please share it with 
me too..
