How to add a simple page within OPS?

Hi

I guess this problem is quite obvious, but I can't figure
what I did wrong (after reading the tutorial and the page
"reference-page-flow").

I tried to add an hello-world example to my freshly
installed OPS. I use Tomcat. I can access OPS via
http://localhost:8080/ops/, and see the examples. I add the
following element to ops/WEB-INF/resources/page-flow.xpl:

<page path-info="/drkm/.+"
matcher="oxf:perl5-matcher"
model="/drkm/page-flow.xpl"/>

just below the 'files' elements and as the first 'page'
element. Then I created the file drkm/page-flow.xpl:

<config xmlns="http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/controller">
<page path-info="/drkm/hello1" view="hello1/view.xhtml"/>
</config>

and the file drkm/hello1/view.xhtml:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>Hello!</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Hello, world!</p>
</body>
</html>

(both in ops/WEB-INF/resources/). But when I point my
browser to http://localhost:8080/ops/drkm/hello1, I get
nothing (the page remains blank, as well as the result of
the "view source").

Can you see the mistake? Did I forgot something?

Thanks in advance. Regards,

--drkm

First, although extensions do not matter in OPS, an XPL file should
contain, well, XPL, that is an XML pipeline. Here you are putting Page
Flow Controller definitions.

So write the following in drkm/page-flow.xpl:

<p:config xmlns:p="http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/pipeline"
xmlns:oxf="http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/processors">

<p:processor name="oxf:page-flow">
<p:input name="controller" href="page-flow.xml"/>
</p:processor>

</p:config>

Then also write drkm/page-flow.xml:

<config xmlns="http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/controller">
<page path-info="/drkm/hello1" view="hello1/view.xhtml"/>
</config>

This should work.

Recent builds of OPS of the PFC is now able to load a sub-PFC as a
model, so you can write directly:

<page path-info="/drkm/.+"
matcher="oxf:perl5-matcher"
model="/drkm/page-flow.xml"/>

But I suspect you are using an older build where this is not
supported.
