Struts bridge in JBoss portal 2.6.1GA

[mirkosolic]

Hello,

I' m running JBoss AS 4.2.1GA and JBoss Portal 2.6.1GA on XP.

I have download struts example 'struts-demo-for-jboss-portal.zip'.
Then i changed struts bridge library in folder WEB-INF/lib to portals-bridges-struts-1.2.7-1.0.3.jar.

But when i try to view portlet i get exception:

javax.servlet.ServletException: Original SevletRequest or wrapped original ServletRequest not passed to RequestDispatcher in violation of SRV.8.2 and

The thing is that on JBoss AS 4.2 there is a stricter Servlet compliance required by default. You can turn it off:
By adding the property
-Dorg.apache.catalina.STRICT_SERVLET_COMPLIANCE=false

(Note that on plain Tomcat, is is false by default)

I uploaded a Struts bridge example on Portletswap:

See the jPetStore example for portal 2.6:
http://labs.jboss.com/portletswap/downloads/portlets/framework/?action=a&windowstate=maximized

Note that you will need to add:
-Dorg.apache.catalina.STRICT_SERVLET_COMPLIANCE=false

When you start JBoss AS.

(you can alter the JAVA_OPTS defined in JBOSS_HOME/bin/run.conf)

On JBoss Portal 2.6.3 due in December you won't have to add that parameter anymore.
