Using Pluto with Weblogic App Server
Hi,
I have a Web application hosted in Weblogic 8 app server.
Our current application needs to have the ability to show portlets in one of
the tabs of the application.
Because of this I cannot use a different portal server as our existing
application should continue to work the way it is with an addition of being
able to display portlets.
Is it possible to do the same by using Apache Pluto as the portlet container
for Weblogic? Will it have any impact to the existing application or its
capability to run portlets?
Also, Can any body give me steps to deploy pluto on weblogic? I tried
creating an EAR and deploying it to weblogic but got stuck with an error
regarding wrong applications.xml file.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Sankar

Thanks! I could resolve the login issue also.
Regarding context path; I realised that by default weblogic deploy pluto
under the context pluto-portal and testsuite under pluto-testsuite.
But in the config files of pluto, the context path is referred as "pluto"
and test suite as "testsuite". So I undeployed both the web apps, renamed
the wars to "pluto.war" and "testsuite.war" and deployed again with the
context names as "pluto" and "testsuite" respectively.
This took care of my issues with context path. Hope this will help.
Regarding the login issue; I created a group called "pluto" in WLS and also
created a user "pluto_user". Made "pluto_user" a part of "pluto" group and
that took care of my login issues also.
Now stuck with more interesting errors.

Any help on the above will be greatly appreciated.

My mistake ---- Meant document of pluto on Weblogic and not Apache. :)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there any doc or writeup which I can use as reference for the deployment
and socializing of Pluto on Apache?
I will work on it today to see whether I am hitting any luck and will keep
you posted. Any help on above will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Sankar

Yes, I have it running in a very similar situation. . .I use the
driver's filter which allows you to embed portlets within a jsp using
taglibs.

I haven't bundled it within an ear - but you shouldn't have any issues
either. . .
