Hi, I am trying to install a new portlet into the JBoss Portal. However, when I try to deploy it, I get the following error: | 14:05:48,123 WARN [PortletAppDeployment] Failed to create instance TestRafiPortletInstance of portlet /testrafiportlet.TestRafiPortlet because portlet /testrafiportlet.TestRafiPortlet is not available | 14:05:48,372 INFO [Http11BaseProtocol] Starting Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-0.0.0.0-8080 | Following are the descriptor files and their contents which I have used. portlet-instances.xml | <deployments> | <deployment> | | <instance> | <instance-id>TestRafiPortletInstance</instance-id> | <portlet-ref>TestRafiPortlet</portlet-ref> | </instance> | </deployment> | </deployments> | | portlet.xml | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | <portlet-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/portlet/portlet-app_1_0.xsd" | xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" | xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/portlet/portlet-app_1... http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/portlet/portlet-app_1_0.xsd" | version="1.0"> | <portlet> | <portlet-name>TestRafiPortlet</portlet-name> | <portlet-class>com.apple.TestRafiPortlet</portlet-class> | <supports> | <mime-type>text/html</mime-type> | <portlet-mode>VIEW</portlet-mode> | </supports> | <portlet-info> | <title>Test Rafi Portlet</title> | </portlet-info> | </portlet> | </portlet-app> | | testrafi-object.xml | <deployments> | <deployment> | <if-exists>overwrite</if-exists> | <parent-ref>default.default</parent-ref> | <window> | <window-name>TestRafiPortletWindow</window-name> | <instance-ref>TestRafiPortletInstance</instance-ref> | <region>center</region> | <height>1</height> | </window> | </deployment> | </deployments> | The exception which is getting thrown is: | 14:05:47,307 INFO [TomcatDeployer] deploy, ctxPath=/testrafiportlet, warUrl=.../deploy/testrafiportlet.war/ | 14:05:48,024 ERROR [AbstractKernelController] Error installing to Start: name=portal:container=Portlet,id=/testrafiportlet.TestRafiPortlet state=Create | org.jboss.portal.portlet.container.PortletInitializationException: The portlet TestRafiPortlet threw a runtime exception during init | at org.jboss.portal.portlet.container.PortletContainer.start(PortletContainer.java:287) | ... | ... | 14:05:48,123 WARN [PortletAppDeployment] Failed to create instance TestRafiPortletInstance of portlet /testrafiportlet.TestRafiPortlet because portlet /testrafiportlet.TestRafiPortlet is not available | 14:05:48,372 INFO [Http11BaseProtocol] Starting Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-0.0.0.0-8080 | | Any ideas on what am I missing here, and how to get it fixed?
