Date: Tue, 23 May 2000 10:58:46 +0200 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) Content-Type: text/plain X-Spam-Rating: locus.apache.org 1.6.2 0/1000/N I'm trying to install an Apache - Tomcat - Cocoon server on my Linux PC for performing a few experiments with XML, XSL and XSP. Unfortunately, the installation process is quite complex: you have to follow a long chain of dependencies, download and install all the required software, understand their intricacies and configure them. I spent all my last weekend on this task and I'm still half the way. Beside this, I still have to create a DTD and a XSL for a sample web application: lightweight, fast and compliant with the usual structure of a web site. I fear I will be white-haired before having my XML web running.... I wonder: is there any "distribution" that automagically creates a usable, working, XML-based web site? I mean: is there a single RPM, or something like that, that deliver a complete and reliable installation of all this stuff, together with a sample web site?
