Hi,

i made a small portlet and copied the class file (+ directory structure) into 
jetspeed/WEB-INF/classes. That didn't work, i got the following error message in 
jetspeedservices.log:

org.apache.jetspeed.portal.PortletException: PortletFactory: Unable to load class 
foo.bar
 at 
org.apache.jetspeed.services.portletfactory.JetspeedPortletFactoryService.getPortlet(JetspeedPortletFactoryService.java:217)
 at 
org.apache.jetspeed.services.portletfactory.JetspeedPortletFactoryService.getPortlet(JetspeedPortletFactoryService.java:163)
 at org.apache.jetspeed.services.PortletFactory.getPortlet(PortletFactory.java:92)
 .....

I also created a jar, incorporating my portlet class, and copied it under 
jetspeed/WEB-INF/lib. Didn't work. I did the same for tomcat/common/lib. Didn't work 
too.

Than i copied the .jar file into j2sdk/lib/ext and it worked.

Here my question: why do the directories jetspeed/WEB-INF/class and 
jetspeed/WEB-INF/lib exist when they are not given attention ?

thanks
