I have Jetspeed 2 built and running using the following environment:

Tomcat 5.0.28
MySQL 4.0.17

I'm trying to deploy my first portlet using the instructions at
http://wiki.apache.org/portals/Jetspeed2/DeployingCustomPortlets.  When I
deploy the portlet, Jetspeed goes through the hot deploy sequence.  Here is
my output:

Do I need to package my portlet with a jetspeed-portlet.xml deployment
descriptor?
 

nope.  Only if you want to use extend the meta-data or access Jetspeed 
Portlet Services directly.


When I view the Jetspeed main page, I get the following error below in the
new portlet window.
 

Could you please post your portlet.xml?

Thanks for the help.  I'm looking forward to getting more involved in the
Jetspeed2.
