how to deploy portlet in pluto 1.1?

Hi All,

I'm trying to deploy a portlet in pluto 1.1 and I do not find how to deploy the WAR.

When I click the Portlet Admin, I get a page like bellow and there is no way to deploy the WAR. Any ideas?

May I ask why you're using Pluto?

JetSpeed2 is a free download, and is a little bit more feature filled. I also run it on a computer with 256 megs of RAM, so it's not that bad a resouce hog.

It may not help you with pluto, but I've got a free tutorial on installing JetSpeed2:

How to Install JetSpeed2 Portal Server with the embedded Derby Database

And from there, I have tutorials on installing JSR168 portlets in JetSpeed:

Deploying JSR168 Portlet Applications to JetSpeed2 Portal Server

The download and installation takes about half an hour at the most. It might be a one step back, two steps forward type of thing.

By the way, I looked at your code from the previous post, and it looked good. Mabye there was something missing in the portlet.xml file? Maybe a tag of some sort?

In that other post where you put your code, shoot your portlet.xml file there as well.

We'll get this working one way or another.

King regards,

Hi Cameron,

Thanks a lot for the help!

I'll try to deploy the portlet in Jetspeed 2, using your guides. But I'd like to run it on pluto as I'm reading Steve Hepper's book and it's totally based on pluto.

Thanks again,
Daniel
