spring 3 and tiles 2.1.4 - basic problem

[olze oli]

hi,

i'm developing a portlet for liferay and didnt find any "good" example (where everything is clearly described) so i think my problem is a very basic one.

i have a portlet with a controller that checks the requestmapping and returns a string like 'view'
this worked with

  <bean id="viewResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.InternalResourceViewResolver">
   <property name="viewClass" value="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.JstlView"/>
   <property name="prefix" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/"/>
   <property name="suffix" value=".jsp"/>
 </bean>
  

really good, so it called my view.jsp

but now i want to use tiles2 so i changed the above to:

 <bean id="tilesConfigurer" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles2.TilesConfigurer">
        <property name="definitions">
            <list>
                <value>/WEB-INF/tiles-def.xml</value>
            </list>
        </property>
    </bean>

    <bean id="viewResolver" class="org.springframework.web.servlet.view.ResourceBundleViewResolver" />   

this is my tiles-def:

  <tiles-definitions>

    <definition name="baseLayout" template="/WEB-INF/jsp/baseLayout.jsp">
        <put-attribute name="navigation" value="/WEB-INF/jsp/navigation.jsp" />
    </definition>

    <definition name="view" extends="baseLayout">
        <put-attribute name="title" value="main view" />
        
    </definition>

</tiles-definitions>  

and my views.properties:

 view.(class)=org.springframework.web.servlet.view.tiles2.TilesView
view.url=view   

when i try to start my portlet i get:

  java.io.FileNotFoundException: /MontyBrogan/WEB-INF/servlet/view

        at com.liferay.portlet.PortletRequestDispatcherImpl.dispatch(PortletRequestDispatcherImpl.java:307)  

for me this looks like i need another dispatcher, not the org.springframework.web.portlet.DispatcherPortlet

can someone please help me?
