That was very helpful, but I'm not there, yet. I removed the widget.war from the deploy directory and restarted JBOSS. When in admin and I select 'google widget' from the pull-down on the page layout page, the server.log says 'portal not found'. I rebuilt and redeployed portal-widget.war, as a precaution. Any ideas? 17:32:58,290 ERROR [STDERR] org.jboss.portal.portlet.NoSuchPortletException: No such portlet /widget.GoogleWidgetPortlet 17:32:58,293 ERROR [STDERR] at org.jboss.portal.portlet.container.PortletContainerInvoker.getPortlet(PortletContainerInvoker.java:179) 17:32:58,293 ERROR [STDERR] at org.jboss.portal.portlet.state.producer.ProducerPortletInvoker.getPortlet(ProducerPortletInvoker.java:186) View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4095342#...
