I have not tried this combination ... and, indeed, the whole area of support
for portlets has not been tested extensively.  Could you do me two favors?

* Post the stack trace you get with 1.0.3 that prevents the startup

* Try the same thing with a recent nightly build, and post any stack
  trace that comes from that.

Where does "return "success"" send you in your navigation rules?  If it
sends you to a different page, then you'll be receiving a different token
there -- and therefore the second click should *not* be caught.

And i do not get the error messages displayed on my portal page.

Portal 5.1 implements servlet version 2.3 so you are going to run into
problems with shale 1.0.3 because that introduced the jump to a
required servlet 2.4.  Shale 1.0.2 did not require servlet 2.4 and
works well with websphere portal 5.1.  I believe portal server 6 will
work with shale 1.0.3.

If you still have problems make sure you do not have
commons-logging.jar deployed in the application's lib directory.
Portal already includes this jar on its server classpath so you want
to avoid deploying it with your application.
