     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/GTNPORTAL-3122?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Martin Weiler updated GTNPORTAL-3122:
-------------------------------------

    Description: 
When a portlet is running into a NoClassDefFoundError in processAction method, this error is not handled properly in UIPortletActionListener.handleErrorResponse:

{code:title=UIPortletActionListener.java|borderStyle=solid}
        private void handleErrorResponse(ErrorResponse response) throws Exception {
            throw (Exception) response.getCause();
        }
{code} 

This code tries to cast the Throwable to Exception, resulting in a ClassCastException which hides the real error. As a result, it is not possible to see the root cause of the issue in the log file.
