[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Can't get Seam application to work as a Portlet

Sorry for the duplicate posting.  The topic somehow got truncated in my last post.

JBoss Portal 2.4.0-CR2
Seam 1.0.0
JBoss 4.0.4

I've got a Seam app that works fine on its own. When I deploy it as a portlet, the initial page of the portlet displays fine, but when I submit a form from that first page, the Seam action doesn't get invoked. The page is just redisplayed.

I've changed FaceletViewHandler and  SeamExtendedManagedPersistencePhaseListener to FaceletPortletViewHandler and SeamExtendedManagedPersistencePortletPhaseListener in faces-config.xml.

I've added very simple jboss-portlet.xml, portlet-instances.xml, portlet.xml, and myapp-object.xml files.

I've commented StartupServletContextListener out of my web.xml.

These are the only changes that I've made to the app from when it was working fine as a standalone Seam application.

Here is the debug output from Seam when the app is running as a portlet, and not working:

Here is the same debug output from the working, non-portlet version of the same app:

Any suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong? Is there some extra missing piece of glue between Seam and Portal that I need?
