Once scancan had been sorted (homedir/webapps business) we began testing it. Everything works, but there is a "warning" in the catalina log to the effect that an XSLT 1.0 instruction is being processed by an XSLT 2.0 processor. While everything works OK, we want to avoid this log entry. Previously mentioned was the fact that xep wanted to have two saxon.jars, and this was causing problem with uploading large docs. Turns out that the saxon.jar *might* be a renderx-hacked version of saxon6. The question is, how do we avoid the eXist upload problems and let xep have it's saxon? This is a post-Christmas task: ask RenderX about this and find out how to deploy a single xep that can be called from multiple apps (cocoon and others). A thought that occurs to me is that I have not tested putting the saxon.jar file i nthe WEB-INF/libs dir instead (as previously mentioned). I shall try this tomorrow.
