HelloWorld problem

[svaret]

Hi,

I have downloaded ant tried to deploy the HelloPortal from the following link:
http://labs.jboss.com/portal/index.html?ctrl:id=page.default.downloads&project=portletswap&category=.portlets.samples

I use jboss-portal-2.0.1-jboss-4.0.3SP1.

I ran ant using build.xml distributed with the sample which produced an .ear-file. I put the ear-file in C:\__dev__\jboss-portal-2.0.1-jboss-4.0.3SP1\server\default\deploy.

The AS console told me:
16:14:34,980 INFO [EARDeployer] Init J2EE application: file:/C:/__dev__/jboss-portal-2.0.1-jboss-4.0.3SP1/ser
ver/default/deploy/helloworldportlet.ear
16:14:35,120 INFO [TomcatDeployer] deploy, ctxPath=/helloworldportlet, warUrl=.../tmp/deploy/tmp22520hellowor
ldportlet.ear-contents/helloworldportlet-exp.war/
16:14:35,220 INFO [PortalServer] Added application /helloworldportlet
16:14:35,230 INFO [EARDeployer] Started J2EE application: file:/C:/__dev__/jboss-portal-2.0.1-jboss-4.0.3SP1/
server/default/deploy/helloworldportlet.ear

So far so good. I now try to navigate to the URL given in the README-fil distributed with the sample app. http://localhost:8080/portal/portal/HelloPortal
and I then get
404 - Page Not Found
Oops! We can't find the resource you're looking for.

And no error in the AS Console.

What am I doing wrong?

Best regards

Lasse

The HelloWorld portlet works in Portal 2.2+. It does not have the descriptors for 2.0.

OK thanx

Do u know of any example application that works in 2.0?

Best regards

Most of the other portlets in portletswap do, but some may not have the src included. At least you can view the deployment descriptors in those.

There is a link to HelloWorld portlet is included in the ref guide I have bundled with jboss 2.0. But it doesn't work with earlier than 2.2.

A little bit confusing when u are trying to learn.
