RE: Attn: Ozgur RE:Q:Servlets and Database search in Jetspeed

[Irene Huang]

Ozgur,

I've followed your instructions, after I click "add" portlet, the
"FormTestDemo" appeared in the customize pane.
After I click "Save&Apply", all the portlets still there but the
"FormTestDemo" didn't show up.
any idea?

thank you for quick reply :)

Irene

Irene,

1) The portlet entry for my test servlet should be similar to this:

<portlet-entry name="Servlet" hidden="false" type="abstract"
application="false">
<classname>org.apache.jetspeed.portal.portlets.ServletInvokerPortlet
   </classname>
</portlet-entry>
<portlet-entry name="FormTestServlet" hidden="false" type="ref"
        parent="Servlet" application="false">
        <meta-info>
            <title>FormTest Demo</title>
            <description>FormTest Demo</description>
        </meta-info>
        <parameter name="url" value="/formtest" hidden="false"/>
        <media-type ref="html"/>
    </portlet-entry>

2) Add these entries to your jetspeed\WEB-INF\web.xml file:

    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>
                formtest
        </servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>
                FormTest
        </servlet-class>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>
                formtest
        </servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>
                /formtest
        </url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

3) Put FormTest.class file into WEB-INF\classes if you have no package
name for it. If you have a package name, it must be put properly, and
the servlet entry in web.xml must reflect that.

4) Restart Tomcat.

Let me know if these fail.

Ozgur,

I've tried the attached servlet sample you post, but I still couldn't
run it
as a portlet.
my steps:

1. add this into one of my .xreg:
    <portlet-entry name="Servlet Testing ..." hidden="false"
        type="instance" application="false">
        <meta-info>
            <description>Servlet Testing again</description>
        </meta-info>
        <classname>com.bluesunrise.portal.portlets.FormTest</classname>
        <media-type ref="html"/>
    </portlet-entry>

2. put the class file of this servlet in
<jetspeed-home>\WEB-INF\classes\com\bluesunrise\portal\portlets
3. Start Tomcat, Log in, and try to add portlet

but when I try to add this servlet after I click "save & apply", the
portlets all disappear.
Can you tell me the steps to make this servlet running as a Jetspeed
portlet?
Where should I put the class file of this servlet at?
Do I need to modify this web.xml file? //jetspeed/WEB-INF/web.xml


Thank you for help!!

Irene
