You can't simply put a jar file somewhere and expect your portlet to run.
What you need to do is:
* Make the portlet's classfiles available in the classpath,
* Make the portlet's resources (images, etc) accessible somewhere below the
webserver's dorument root, and
* Register the portlet in the portlet registry
(WEB-INF/con/jetspeed-config.jcfg).
The portal needs to be restarted to read the changes in the portlet
registry - that's nasty.
I put portlet code in a directory below WEB-INF
(ROOT/WEB-INF/portlets/MyPortlet.jar) and its resources in a directory
right below the document root (ROOT/portlet_resources/MyPortley/*).
Where we need to get to is to have an packaging/installation mechanism like
WARs (in our case PARs), that can be installed automatically and at run-time.
But that's still to solve and implement.
