2.4 alpha version bugs
Okay, wasn't able to find these problems from known bugs list so I decided to post them here in order to make sure they get noticed.
null request parameters:
Just ported some stuff from stable 2.2 to the alpha 2.4, and one thing I noticed broken (on the bundled install) was request parameters in the user servlet. You can recreate this bug by logging in as admin, using the user portlet to list users. In my installation, the user name filter doesn't really work, nor does the selectlist of how many users to show on one page. I modified user portlet a bit, and noticed that from this form, all form post request parameters are null values. So something must have gone wrong while storing them. Other forms that post directly past doView work nicely (such as assign roles to users).
Another thing; I've been having some problems installing portlets and not sure if it's my code, but I get "java.lang.ClassCastException: org.jboss.portal.portlet.metadata.JBossApplicationMetaData" from PortletAppDeployment.injectServices (line 84). Not sure if this is due to something I did or something the server did, though. Sorry, if others are experiencing this too I'll post some stacktraces.
However, I did notice that when installing the unmodified example, calcportlet.ear (downloaded from jboss portal addons site), which used to install nicely before, I know get a nullpointerexception. Here's the stacktrace for that:
