Weblogic 6.0sp1, Cocoon2 installation problems, HELP

Question

Hi,
I tried installing Cocoon2 with Weblogic6.0sp1 following the instructions on Cocoon
site -- when I start up Weblogic, I get the message,
<Error> <J2EE> <Error deploying application cocoon: Could not load cocoon>
The weblogic log file reports
"<Exception thrown while loading cocoon: java.lang.NullPointerException>".
Please help!
Thanks
Sushmita

Thanks. But I need instructions for Cocoon2 -- not Cocoon 1.8.1 I already have
C1 working fine.

Sushmita,
Try cocoon on WLS 6.1 SP1. I too had problems with WLS 6.0 SP2 and so
I downloaded WLS
6.1 with SP1 and cocoon ran like a charm.
Steps to install coocoon on WLS 6.1 SP1
(1) Download the cocoon 1.8.2 version from http://xml.apache.org
(2) After uncompressing the file make sure that you have /bin/cocoon.jar
and all jar files in the /lib folder.
(3) In WLS6.1SP1 under /applications create /cocoon and within this
/WEB-INF
(4) Copy /src/web.xml from the download to /applications/cocoon/WEB-INF
(5) Copy /conf/cocoon.properties into /applications/cocoon
(6) Copy /sample into /applications/cocoon
(7) Modify the web.xml so that you have
<param-name>properties</param-name>
<param-value>conf/cocoon.properties</param-value>
(8) In the classpath make sure you have the following jar files after
weblogic.jar file
<java_home>/lib/tools.jar
cocoon.jar
xalan_1_2_D02.jar
turbine-pool.jar
w3c.jar
fop_0_15_0.jar
(9) Access the cocoon servlet by hitting
http://localhost:port/cocoon/samples/index.xml
