[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Re: Portlet Instance Class Path

[BenS]

I tried to create the tutorial that you referrenced in Eclipse and deploy it.  

I ended up with the 4 xml files specified (default-object.xml, portlet.xml, portlet-instances.xml, and web.xml) under WEB-INF.

I have a path WEB-INF/classes/org/jboss/portal/portlet/samples to my SimplestHelloWorldPortlet.class

In addition, I have a WEB-INF/lib directory that contains the following jars:  explode.jar, portal-common-lib.jar, and portlet-api-lib.jar  I needed to add these jars for the class file.

I zipped everything beneath the WebContent directory which included the WEB-INF and META-INF contents.  When I dropped it into the deploy directory I get the following error message:

16:04:42,134 WARN  [PortletAppDeployment] Failed to create instance SimplestHelloWorldInstance of portlet /SimplestHelloWorldPortlet.SimplestHelloWorldPortlet because portlet /SimplestHelloWorldPortlet.SimplestHelloWorldPortlet is not available

The tutorial did not specify the contents for web.xml so I used the following:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
  | <!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC
  |    "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
  |    "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
  | <web-app>
  | </web-app>

Here are the contents for the remaining xml files:

portlet-instances.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
  | <!DOCTYPE deployments PUBLIC
  |    "-//JBoss Portal//DTD Portlet Instances 2.6//EN"

  |       </instance>
  |    </deployment>
  | </deployments>
