Ate Douma updated PLUTO-590:
----------------------------

              Summary:  Nested dispatching from a portlet to two or more servlet/jsps does not retain the portlet contextPath when calling (servlet)request.getContextPath() but returns the portal contextPath  (was:  In a porltet JSP file, calling request.getContextPath() gives the portal app "/pluto" and not the portlet app's context path.)
    Affects Version/s: 2.0.1
             Priority: Critical  (was: Major)
          Component/s: portlet container

Eric,

I've now been able to reproduce the error: it is a bug in HttpServletPortletRequestWrapper indeed, method setupNestedDispatchPathValues() to be precise.
This bug only shows up when going through multiple/nested dispatches like in your BookmarksPortlet but I also could easily reproduce it with using just two minimal servlets chaining a request dispatcher include call.
Too bad the Portlet 2.0 TCK doesn't include tests for nested dispatching (which semantics is largely underspecified in the portlet spec.).

I've renamed this issue to more appropriately reflect this error and bumped its priority to Critical as well.

I already have come up with a fix which passes the TCK (both tested against Pluto and Jetspeed 2.2.1) which I will commit shortly.
Please check if it then works for you/uPortal too after which we can resolve this issue again.

> JSPs called by a portlet have this problem.  request.getContextPath() changed between pluto 1.x and 2.0
> You need to use the portlet taglib to get the context path from the portletrequest.
