Hmm, i dont see why that shouldn't work really.  Unless you're missing some other path elements somehow, at the time the bonobo-activation daemon is running.  I'd probably put the csw stuff after the existing path though.  And make sure there aren't duplicates (e.g. of older stuff) in the different locations.

Might need to make sure LD_LIBRARY_PATH is setup appropriately too.

Hmm, no it should work, once you get those 'cannot activate' things fixed - the other errors are just cascading from that.

I don't really know what ot suggest other than playing with the path and working out why other things don't run.
