Re: [J2] Passing attributes from a portlet to a servlet...
I've seen many posts related to this, but no solutions that work for
me. My understanding is that the HttpSession backing of
PortletSession is the portal application context session, not the
HttpSession for the portlet context. Therefore, when the portlet
applications servlet tries to get the session value, it can't.
I've seen posts (http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PLUTO-53) that
say it is a pluto/Tomcat issue, and say setting crossContext="true"
and emptySessionPath="true" will solve the problem. This didn't work
for me either.
I'm running Jetspeed 2.0 FINAL on Tomcat 5.5.12. Anyone solve this problem?

Re: [J2] Passing attributes from a portlet to a servlet...
Posted by Ethan Adams <et...@gmail.com>.
I think I found the problem. It works when accessing the Portal over
8080, but when going through Apache and the AJP connector, it doesn't.
Any ideas on how to solve that?

Posted by Aaron Evans <aa...@gmail.com>.
This is great! I always thought that this didn't work because I thought the
session objects were being kept under jetspeed's context. But all along it
was because I didn't have this AJP setting turned on. I guess you learn
something everyday.
This is going to help me immensely. Thanks for asking the question Ethan!

Hold off on that. My mistake. My original problem WAS that I didn't
have the emptySessionPath="true" setting on the AJP connector. I only
had it on the 8080 connector.
I made the change, restarted, and tested and it appeared NOT to work.
But now it seems to work. I don't really know what happened there,
but I seem to be all set now.
Thanks for the help.

Ethan,
The difference in the situations where I have seen this work and yours
is that here you are dispatching across the webapp boundary. I have
always hit both the portlet and servlet from the browser. I am surprised
that this does not work straight out since the portlet and servlet are
both being invoked from the same context.
One of the other J2 developers may have more insight. I'll ping them...

Re: [J2] Passing attributes from a portlet to a servlet...
Posted by Ethan Adams <et...@gmail.com>.
1. I have emptySessionPath="true" set for the AJP connector and the
8080 connector. I'm using AJP with an Apache 2 connector.
2. I have the default setting of crossContext="true" in the
Catalina/localhost/jetspeed.xml file
3. I hit a portal page with the portlet on it.
4. The portlet calls a JSP with this code:
<%renderRequest.getPortletSession().setAttribute("test", "MYTEST",
PortletSession.APPLICATION_SCOPE);%>
5. Then call a JSP that contains the following directly, and get null.
<%=request.getSession().getAttribute("test")%>
Any thoughts?

Re: [J2] Passing attributes from a portlet to a servlet...
Posted by Randy Watler <wa...@wispertel.net>.
Ethan,
Yes... it does work... at least with JJ svn HEAD:
1. Make sure the portlet is hit first, (e.g. before the servlet in the
browser session).
2. You must use APPLICATION_SCOPE portlet attributes.
3. emptySessionPath="true" must be set on the Tomcat connector in use.
4. Tomcat 5.5.4+ is required.
5. crossContext="true" must be set for the jetspeed webapp... which it
is by default.
HTH,
Randy

You are setting attributes in the Jetspeed application's session,
which is different from your portlet application's session. The
servlet spec requires that these attributes are not shared between
applications.
What you can try to do is set a request attribute on the jetspeed
request (servlet) in your login redirector servlet, and then grab the
attribute in your portlet with something like:
Object attribute = null;
Enumeration attributes = renderRequest.getAttributeNames();
while (attributes.hasMoreElements())
{
String name = (String)attributes.nextElement();
attribute = renderRequest.getAttribute(name);
if (attribute!=null)
{
out.print(name + " = " + attribute + "<br/>");
}
}
You may need to set the request attribute in jetspeed after the
redirect, preferably in a valve

RE: [J2] Passing attributes from a portlet to a servlet...
Posted by Bon <bo...@unipattern.com>.
Hi all,
There is a problem in my program, does it the same topic about this
article?
My J2 is version 2.1.3 and tomcat is 5.5.23.
The following is the detail of my question:
When user login into my Portal, I've set some attributes in HttpSession
at LoginRedirectorServlet, and I hope those attributes could be access
in my portlets in my portlet-application.
now, my portlets can not get those attributes in Portlet or JSP,
in my Portlet doView method, my code like that
String my_attribute = (String) renderRequest.getPortletSession().
getAttribute("my-attribute",
PortletSession.APPLICATION_SCOPE);
in my JSP, the code like that
<%@ taglib uri='/WEB-INF/tld/portlet.tld' prefix='portlet' %>
<portlet:defineObjects/>
<%
Enumeration psans = renderRequest.getPortletSession()
.getAttributeNames(PortletSession.APPLICATION_SCOPE);
while(psans.hasMoreElements()){
String psan = (String) psans.nextElement();
out.print("\n " + psan + "=" + renderRequest.getPortletSession()
.getAttribute(psan,
PortletSession.APPLICATION_SCOPE));
}
%>
I've set the emptySessionPath="true" in my tomcat sever.xml like that
<Connector port="8080" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"
maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"
connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true"
emptySessionPath="true" />
but I still can not get the session attributes in my Portlets,
does it the same thing about this article?
and what should I do to fix my porblem?
Regards,
Bon
