Thanks for the other stack trace. Unfortunately, those ones are usually 
very difficult to debug, as the error shows up in Xalan as a null 
pointer exception, which was actually triggered by something much 
further back in the pipeline.

Now, have you tried replacing <map:serialize type="text"/> with 
<map:serialize type="xml"/>

What do you see? Does it produce your text content, but wrapped in XML?

Also, the processing instruction, to my knowledge, won't make any 
difference. It looks like a Cocoon 1.x instruction, that Cocoon 2 
doesn't know about. Configuration like that happens in the sitemap, not 
in processing instructions.
