Thanks for the recommendation. I did as you suggested and thought I might have found the problem. An exception was thrown when j2-admin was redeployed stating that it couldn't find the SAXParserFactoryImpl class. I went ahead and copied the xerces jars to the common\lib directory for Tomcat and restarted the server.
That didn't seem to resolve the issue. So, I changed the web.xml file for j2-admin again. The jetspeed.log reported the usual error: 2007-01-22 14:54:47,169 [WORKER_5] ERROR org.apache.jetspeed.container.invoker.ServletPortletInvoker - Failed to find Servlet context for Portlet Application: /j2-admin javax.portlet.PortletException: Failed to find Servlet context for Portlet Application: /j2-admin at org.apache.jetspeed.container.invoker.ServletPortletInvoker.invoke(ServletPortletInvoker.java:188) at org.apache.jetspeed.container.invoker.ServletPortletInvoker.render(ServletPortletInvoker.java:126) at org.apache.pluto.PortletContainerImpl.renderPortlet(PortletContainerImpl.java:119) at org.apache.jetspeed.container.JetspeedPortletContainerWrapper.renderPortlet(JetspeedPortletContainerWrapper.java:120) at org.apache.jetspeed.aggregator.impl.RenderingJobImpl.execute(RenderingJobImpl.java:121) at org.apache.jetspeed.aggregator.impl.RenderingJobImpl.run(RenderingJobImpl.java:91) at org.apache.jetspeed.aggregator.impl.WorkerImpl$1.run(WorkerImpl.java:174) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at javax.security.auth.Subject.doAsPrivileged(Subject.java:454) at org.apache.jetspeed.aggregator.impl.WorkerImpl.run(WorkerImpl.java:168) In the catalina.out log, the following is diplayed: INFO: Remove all registry entries defined for portlet application j2-admin INFO: Loading portlet.xml....j2-admin namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] namespace = http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed name = service object = [EMAIL PROTECTED] service = [EMAIL PROTECTED] INFO: Loading web.xml....j2-admin INFO: Registered the portlet application j2-admin INFO: Registered the portlet application in the search engine... j2-admin So, it looks like it's registering, but I don't know why the context error is happening.
