Hi Raj,
A few questions on JetspeedContainerServlet.
This is required when you try to convert a myfaces web app into a JSR
168 portlet(based on the guidelines provided by Stan Silvert).
This works fine on jetspeed2 but I tried running the same war file on
IBM Webpshere portal and it didn't run.
Now the question is whether this conversion of web app into a portlet is
specifically meant for jetspeed2 portal only?
JetspeedContainerServlet seems to be very specific to jetspeed2.
But Stan has said that it works fine on JBoss portal server also. It
means either that the resultant portlet is a JSR 168 one which can run
on any JSR168 compliant portal server or jetspeed2 and Jboss are very
similar in architecture.
Have you tried running it on some other portal server like liferay,
webspehere etc?
Thanks,
Sunil

If you deploy your portlets as directory (expanded wars) you will need
to
add JetspeedContainerServlets and its mapping in your web.xml file.

Thanks, I must have copied my web.xml from a portlet web application
that was
already deployed when I was building my latest one.
I am still puzzled about having to include the following block in my
web.xml.
<security-role>
<description>The admin role</description>
<role-name>admin</role-name>
</security-role>
If I do not include this block, the deployment of the war file via
jetspeed
will fail.
I am not sure, why do you need this in your portlet application's
web.xml. However, this is required in portal application's web.xml and I
never explored why it is needed. My portal uses Jetspeed's default
security configration.
Thanks,
Raj
Why must I include this role declaration?
The logs are not helpful in determining the problem. deployment.log
just says:
Failed to load portlet application for portlet-app
And the tomcat logs have this stack trace, but again, not very useful:
INFO: Remove all registry entries defined for portlet application

INFO: No extended metadata found.
