[Jportlet-devel] running jportlet

[Marcin N. <mar...@we...>]

Hi !

I was trying to run HelloWorld portlet....
but let's start at begining i downloaded jportlet and here comes first
suprise
wow but how am i supposed to run this ?
i started digging in template directory and found line with JBoss so i
thought it runs on JBoss
so i  started my jboss 3.0.4 with tomcat and then did all steps in
helloworld tutorial
(btw frame containing HelloPortlet has wrong name)

all stuff has compiled and then deployed (almoust) ...
and problems started :)

15:27:51,764 INFO  [PortletApplicationImpl] Initializing
15:27:53,957 ERROR [Digester] Begin event threw exception
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: No ClassLoaders found for:
net.sf.jportlet.portlet.descriptor.ApplicationDescriptor

140)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:255)
        ....

so i putted jportlet.jar and velocity.jar into lib of my jboss

better but still don't working

16:08:52,492 ERROR [PortletServiceFactoryImpl] Unable to initialize service:
velocity
net.sf.jportlet.service.PortletServiceException

        at net.sf.jportlet.impl.PortletApplicationImpl.init(Unknown Source)
        at net.sf.jportlet.web.servlet.PortletServlet.init(Unknown Source)

i think now is something wrong with velocity but i have nerver used it so i
need some help here

there also was problems with db taskt but i copied into my project proper
version of hypersonic library
and then this task started to work properly

please write a  little bit more about running jportlet with JBoss or what
have i done bad
or write something about your way of running jportlet
