I'm stuck - Error creating org.apache.cocoon.processor.xsp.XSPProcessor

["T.Pospisek's MailLists" <tp...@spin.ch>]

In my unsuccessfull quest to process an external xml document from a xsl
document (see my previous post), I am trying to upgrade from 1.5 (that
comes with debian) to 1.8 in the hope that maybe I'll get it to work. I'm
getting:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Error creating
org.apache.cocoon.processor.xsp.XSPProcessor: make sure the needed classes
can be found in the classpath (org/apache/xerces/parsers/DOMParser)

I have followed the install instructions, copied cocoon.properties, made
sure that jserv has the classpaths, made sure that repository exists. No
success, allways the same error. There's one thing though that I couldn't
find and that doesn't exist here: "/usr/local/java/jdk/lib/tools.jar". My
setup:

Apache 1.3.12
ApacheJServ/1.1.2
Cocoon 1.8

* cocoon's config file is set in /etc/jserv/zones/root.zone:
  servlet.org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon.initArgs=properties=/etc/cocoon/cocoon.properties
* I have copied 1:1 the cocoon.properties from the package and it's at the
  place indicated above
* /etc/jserv/jserv.properties contains:
  wrapper.classpath=/usr/lib/jdk1.1/lib/classes.zip
  wrapper.classpath=/usr/share/java/ApacheJServ.jar

Help would be very much appreciated. I've been stuck for 2 days now,
trying to get it to work and it's getting worse.
