Hi,
- Thanks for all the responses so far regarding my other issues I have raised. I
truly appreciate the advice and help! I promise that once I get this stuff working, I
will contribute to the next build by adding some new demo portlets (or expand on some
of the existing ones) if folks agree they are worth while
- I am trying to get a (WML media type) JSPPortlet-based portlet to work
- I am still using the default (out of the box) Velocity-based templates and have
successfully created and tested my own (HTML) JSPPortlet-based portlets.
- Given the following entry in local-portlets.xreg:
<portlet-entry name="wmlJSP" hidden="false" type="ref" parent="JSP"
application="false">
<meta-info>
<title>wmlJSP</title>
<description>WML JSP Portlet Example</description>
</meta-info>
<classname>org.apache.jetspeed.portal.portlets.JspPortlet</classname>
<parameter name="template" value="wmlfun.jsp" hidden="true"
cachedOnName="true" cachedOnValue="true"/>
<media-type ref="wml"/>
<url cachedOnURL="true"/>
<category group="Jetspeed">demo</category>
<category group="Jetspeed">jsp.demo</category>
</portlet-entry>
I also tried value="wml/wmlfun.jsp" just for fun, it fails in exactly the same
manner. Note, there is no action, however the HelloJSP portlet in demo-portlets.xreg
also has no action either and it works fine...
- I can add this portlet under the customize WML no problem, so it has been added to
the registry.
- I have a file called wmlfun.jsp under ../WEB-INF/templates/jsp/portlets/wml (I
needed to create the WML directory, a HTML already existed to which I have previously
successfully added some HTML JSP's). Text of wmlfun.jsp:
<%@ taglib uri='/WEB-INF/templates/jsp/tld/template.tld' prefix='jetspeed' %>
<card title="Hello">
<p align="center">Ready 4 fun</p>
</card>
- Quote from the tutorial: "Similarly, WML portlets would be found under
/WEB-INF/templates/jsp/portlets/wml"
which is where I added wmlfun.jsp
- After successfully adding this portlet (in HTML mode) using "customize WML", I
successfully login using my OpenWave emulator. It then spits back valid WML other
than the following error message embedded:
org.apache.turbine.util.TurbineException: Error rendering Velocity template:
null
Line from jetspeed.log:
[17 Jan 2003 16:54:28 ERROR] - Error rendering Velocity template: null: null
- It appears to me that JetSpeed is looking for a Velocity template, when I have
clearly specified a JSPPortlet, thus it's not looking for the JSP template I placed in
the correct directory (according to the tutorial).
- I added another entry in local-portlets.xreg which points to the same template jsp
file, but it's name/title/etc. are different and the media type is html. I then
simply copied my wmlfun.jsp from ../WEB-INF/templates/jsp/portlets/wml to
../WEB-INF/templates/jsp/portlets/html. And guess what, it works great... This other
portlet entry text is:
<portlet-entry name="wmlHJSP" hidden="false" type="ref" parent="JSP"
application="false">
<meta-info>
<title>AAwmlHJSP</title>
<description>wmlH JSP Portlet Example</description>
</meta-info>
<classname>org.apache.jetspeed.portal.portlets.JspPortlet</classname>
<parameter name="template" value="wmlfun.jsp" hidden="true"
cachedOnName="true" cachedOnValue="true"/>
<media-type ref="html"/>
<url cachedOnURL="true"/>
<category group="Jetspeed">demo</category>
<category group="Jetspeed">jsp.demo</category>
</portlet-entry>
- To restate the obvious, it SURE looks like jetspeed is not looking for the WML
template in the "correct" place. BTW, The "Stocks" demo example (not "Stock
Portfolio"), which is Velocity-based I believe, ALSO fails and spits out a:
org.apache.turbine.util.TurbineException: Error rendering Velocity template: null
Thus the only working WML portlets that I can see are the demo examples, Stock
Portfolio and MyWeather. Both are WMLFilePortlets which serve static WML files :-(
- Side note: the Logout function for WML (last link) pukes nicely right out of the box
with :
Horrible Exception: org.apache.turbine.services.InstantiationException: ServiceBroker:
unknown service SecurityService requested
Thanks again,
Mike
