That might be the sanest solution for now. 

I'd love to add it to the portlet-instances.xml, that was what I thought the 
right way to go was. However, when I tried, I got errors (see 3rd post in this 
thread with example).  Could you maybe explain what you're thinking?  I might 
also try a seperate thread to ask this question to clarify it based on what 
I've learned...

An example to clarify what I meant: to create another instance of the news 
portlet, go to 
jboss-portal.sar/samples/portal-news-samples.war/WEB-INF/portlet-instances.xml 
and add the new instance there.

Oh, I see.  Okay, thank you.  That makes sense.

However, I've just learned that it isn't just creating instances of external 
portlets that are failing.  I created a portlet inside of my war and have the 
same problem.  It keeps appending ehealth. to the front of everything and so 
can't find it.  

I am totally banging my head against the wall.  I tried blanking out the 
app-name in jboss-app.xml, but all that did was to start appending . to the 
start of everything.  

I've obviously got something set wrong.  Do you have any idea how I can tell it 
that the context to start from should be blank (not ehealth or .)

Oops - ignore last post.  Staring at screen too long.  Creating local instances 
works just fine. 

Phew, okay, I think I'm good.  Thanks so much for all of your help!

Okay, let me try a few more things.  I just installed portlet-bridge 
seperately.  I don't see a very easy way to include it in my war (it is built 
with maven, I'm building mine with ant, and they're both structured a little 
differently as far as file locations).  But, maybe I can just modify the 
portlet-bridge WAR itself to create the instances for me.

This feels like a horrible hack though.  There must be another way to do this.  

I'm also going to need to create instances of NewsPortlet (a portlet that comes 
installed automatically in JBoss Portal), but am running into the same problems 
there.  Do you know how I'd create instances of that?  I feel like I'm just 
going to keep hitting the same problem...

The procedure would be the same for any portlet (including the news portlet).

One of the things I did not think of is to edit the portlet-instances.xml file 
for the desired portlet to add the extra instances. That might be the sanest 
solution for now.

I am sitting in a hotel, attending a week-long conference, with a brand new 
laptop (my beloved Dell died) which I haven't had a chance to set up with my 
development environment. If I was at work I would continue looking for the 
portal where I did all of this, or at least try it again from scratch and post 
my findings and recommendations. I'll try setting up the laptop and see where 
that goes, but knowing how busy I am at this conference it might take a while 
before I have results. I'll keep you posted.

Ah, class loading issues. How fun.

I guess the next question is where is everything deployed? In other words, 
where is the PortletBridge deployed and where is your portlet deployed? Are 
they in separate war files in the deploy directory, or is either of them in the 
jboss-portal.sar directory (such as in the samples directory). One possibility 
is including the PortletBridge portlet code in the same war as your portlet 
(this is what i would do because the bridge portlet is just a sample portlet 
from PortletSwap). Another possibility is placing both war files in the 
jboss-portal.sar/samples directory (not guaranteed to work, but worth a shot).

Thank you.  Here is my portlet-instances.xml:

?xml version=1.0 standalone=yes?
  | !DOCTYPE deployments PUBLIC
  |-//JBoss Portal//DTD Portlet Instances 2.6//EN
  |http://www.jboss.org/portal/dtd/portlet-instances_2_6.dtd;
  | deployments
  |deployment
  |   if-existsoverwrite/if-exists
  |   instance
  |  instance-idGooglePortletBridgeInstance/instance-id
  |  
portlet-reforg.portletbridge.portlet.PortletBridgePortlet/portlet-ref
  |   /instance
  |   preferences
  | preference
  |   nameinitUrl/name
  |   valuehttp://www.google.com/value
  | /preference
  |   /preferences
  |/deployment
  | /deployments

I don't think my *-object.xml is an issue becuase the above doesn't work.  
Instead, here is my jboss-app.xml:

jboss-app
  |app-nameehealth/app-name
  | /jboss-app

When I deploy, I get the following error:
anonymous wrote : 17:24:17,203 WARN  [PortletAppDeployment] Failed to create 
instance GooglePortletBridgeInstance of portlet 
ehealth.org.portletbridge.portlet.PortletBridgePortlet because portlet 
ehealth.org.portletbridge.portlet.PortletBridgePortlet is not available
  | 

As you can see, it appended my app name (ehealth) to the portletbridge 
package name, so now it can't find it.

Do you know how I can stop it from appending my application's name to the front 
so that it can find the portlet?

Thanks!
Abby

Huh, interesting.  Although, unfortunately it's not finding the PortletBridge 
even with the correct package in portlet.xml:

  portlet
  | portlet-nameeHealthPortletBridge/portlet-name
  | 
portlet-classorg.portletbridge.portlet.PortletBridgePortlet/portlet-class
  |   /portlet

Gave me this error:
anonymous wrote : 18:07:53,906 ERROR [STDERR] 
org.jboss.portal.portlet.container.PortletInitializationException: Portlet 
class not found org.portletbridge.portlet.PortletBridgePortlet

I tried a number of permutations, but with no better luck.  Any other ideas?

Yes, you need to create 2 new instances. In your portlet-instances.xml file is 
the correct place to do this, then you refer to the instances in your 
*-object.xml file. That has always worked fine for me.

Could you post the declarations of the instances and the windows from your 
portlet-instances and *-object.xml files? Don't foget to bracket the entries 
with the [ code ]...[ /code ] tags (without spaces).

Ah, it's all coming back to me now. That's what happens when I don't deal with 
a problem for a while, I forget some of the hoops I jumped through.

Try this. In your portlet.xml file, declare another portlet, say 
'YetAnotherBridgePortlet' whose class is 
org.portletbridge.portlet.PortletBridgePortlet. Then in portlet-instance.xml, 
you can have:

instance
  |  instance-idGooglePortletBridgeInstance/instance-id
  |  portlet-refYetAnotherBridgePortlet/portlet-ref
  |   /instance
  |   instance
  |  instance-idYahooPortletBridgeInstance/instance-id
  |  portlet-refYetAnotherBridgePortlet/portlet-ref
  |   /instance

Then reference GooglePortletBridgeInstance and YahooPortletBridgeInstance in 
*-object.xml.

Caveat: I think this is what I did; I am still looking for the files or writeup 
where I explained this to someone a while back. Once I find the evidence, if it 
is different, I will post a correction.
