Instructions for Installing Cocoon omn Orion Application Server

[Montebove Luciano <L....@finsiel.it>]

Hi all,

The instructions assume you have an application called myapp:

1) Copy cocoon.jar and fop.jar into your orion/lib directory

2) Create a cocoon directory under myapp-web and put the cocoon.properties
file
into it

3) Add the following lines to web.xml in myapp-web/WEB-INF:
	<servlet>
		<servlet-name>Cocoon</servlet-name>
		<display-name>Cocoon</display-name>
		<servlet-class>org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon</servlet-class>
		<init-param>
			<param-name>properties</param-name>
			<param-value>/cocoon/cocoon.properties</param-value>
		</init-param>
	</servlet>
	<servlet-mapping>
		<servlet-name>Cocoon</servlet-name>
		<url-pattern>*.xml</url-pattern>
	</servlet-mapping>

4) Compile the following servlet in your orion/lib directory (to enable
XSP):

package classpath;

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.servlet.*;
import javax.servlet.http.*;

public class Classpath extends HttpServlet { 

  public void init(ServletConfig conf) throws ServletException {
	String path=System.getProperty("java.class.path");
	if (path.lastIndexOf("cocoon") == -1)
		{
			String
instdir=path.substring(0,path.indexOf("orion.jar"));
			System.setProperty("java.class.path",path 	+
			File.pathSeparator +
			instdir +
			"xerces.jar" +
			File.pathSeparator +
			instdir+
			"lib/cocoon.jar");
		}
	}  	
	public void service (HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse
res)
	throws ServletException, IOException
    	{}
}

5)Comment out  from global-web-application.xml the lines referred to
com.evermind.servlet.XSLServlet and xsl in general

6)Add these lines to global-web-application.xml:

		<servlet>
			<servlet-name>classpath</servlet-name>
			<servlet-class>classpath.Classpath</servlet-class>
			<init-param>
				<param-name>defaultContentType</param-name>
				<param-value>text/html</param-value>
			</init-param>
		<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
		</servlet>

7) copy the Cocoon samples dir under myapp-web

8) Restart Orion and try http://myhost/myapp/samples/index.xml :

All samples should work except First XSP Page(namespace library version)

All improvements  are welcome.
