Re: "simplest" portlet
I have followed the on-line documentation at
http://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/guides/guide-simple-portlet.html
and haven't been able to get this to work. I receive "Failed to
retrieve Portlet Definition for simplest::Simplest" in the portlet pane.
According to the message archive, this was also reported back on March
9, 2006.
Does anyone have a resolution for this error?

Greg,
If you modify the psml and deploy several times make sure you change the
fragment id so that it's unique. That had caused me problems before. Also,
you should define the name as <war file name>::<porletId>
I think if your war file is simplest.war it should be simplest::Simplest
Maybe try changing the fragment id and deploy again. I know it had solved
this problem for me.
<fragment id="<unique_id>" type="portlet"
name="<warfilename>::<portlet-id>">
Also make sure there is no spelling errors in your web.xml
That's all I can remember...

Did you create the file on Windows? It looks like your deploying on
Unix, so maybe there are some hidden characters in the file that aren't
Unix friendly. Open the file and vi and you should be able to see if
there are hidden characters.

There are a number of web.xml, so I am not very sure which is the one
that is creating this error. I guess it should be the one in
simplest.war, the archive that I have created , since the demo portlets
are being deployed correctly. The one in simplest.war is as follows :-

Even I am facing the same problem getting the simplest portlet at

If you login as Admin, go to the PALM Adminstrative portlet
Do you see an application named "simplest" there?
If yes, what is its status?
If all else fails email me your war file and I should be able to
figure it out in a few minutes

Re: "simplest" portlet
Posted by Brice Lambi <la...@gmail.com>.
Do you have any output in the logs? When you deploy a portlet-app to
WEB-INF/deploy you should see a log message a few seconds later informing
you whether the deployment was successful or not. If not, check to make
sure you have no errors in your portlet.xml file. If it was successful,
make sure you have the portlet name correct in your psml file or try
restarting the server. You usually shouldn't have to restart the server
when you deploy a new app but sometimes it doesn't get deployed properly.
Good luck,
Brice
