RE: JSP based portlets in pluto

[Bob Besaha <bo...@issinc.com>]

Philip,

Thanks for your help.  

Is there anything to do in deploying the bridges common jar other than
dropping the jar in the lib dir?  When I add a jsp based portlet element to
portlet.xml I get an error as below.

Hi Bob,

Portals Bridges is your ticket.

The key is the GenericServletPortlet in the bridges.common package.

I wrote this guide a while ago that explains how to do it with
Jetspeed but it will work in Pluto just as well.
