I just solved that problem. Here is what I did wrong:
I develop java-programs on two machines. 1 is a linux server, the other currently runs
windows. They both
share a common CLASSPATH for my own classes, but they do not share the
/jdk/jre/lib/ext directory.
I copied Jetspeed's jar-files into the /jdk/jre/lib/ext of the windows system and
compiled the portlet
there. Jetspeed runs on the linux server. I created a .jar file with my portlet and
put it in the right
place, BUT the JVM seems to load the .class file which is (also) located in the
CLASSPATH instead and is
then unable to find the AbstractPortlet class because the .jar can't be found in JRE's
/lib/ext dir on
that machine.
I put symbolic links to Jetspeed's jar-files in the /jdk/jre/lib/ext/. Now everything
is working fine.
