george talusan commented on JS2-601:
------------------------------------

Some more information:

1.  My HREFs call back into the Portlet using createActionUrl
2.  The Portlet's processAction method does some work and stuffs request parameters into session so other Portlets are aware of what's happening.
3.  The Portlet's doView method gets called and a PortletRequestDispatcher is created that references the HREF.  This HREF is within the same webapp and is a servlet.
4.  PortletRequestDispatcher.include is called.
5.  Servlet gets control and a new RequestDispatcher is created from the HttpServletRequest.
6.  RequestDispatcher is non-null and a call to its forward method is used to render a JSP.
7.  An exception is thrown from Catalina saying path is null because of the reasons explained in the description.

>    Affects Versions: 2.0-FINAL
>         Environment: Tomcat 5.5.20 with Jetspeed 2.0 on Windows.

> I've written a Portlet that has several HREFs that point to servlets.  One of these servlets does a forward to a JSP page.  
> Turning on logging in catalina's JSPServlet shows ServletPath, PathInfo, RealPath, RequestURI, QueryString are all null.  The forward subsequently fails since getPathInfo and friends are returning null.
> While inside my servlet's doGet/doPost, If I cast the HttpServletRequest to Jetspeed-2's ServletRequestImpl and call setPortletDispatcherIncluded(false) then the forward will work.
> I expect the forward to work in Tomcat regardless of whether the servlet was called via a portlet or other.
