Configuring latest Pluto 2.0 for Tomcat 6.x
Any advice? I have an installation of Pluto 2.0 + Tomcat 6.0.16 from
back in the spring that works fine. Now I am trying to install the
latest Pluto 2.0 into either a new Tomcat 6.0.16 or Tomcat 6.0.18. All
seems to install okay (based on the information from the Pluto
website). However Pluto doesn't start -- becaused it throws a
noClassDefFound exception for the class:
org.apache.pluto.driver.PortalStartupListener. Checking the various
config files makes it look like things are set up right. And of course
this class exists in the pluto-portal-driver-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar that is
found in the web-inf/lib dir of the pluto (installed) webapp. Has
anyone seen this/or have ideas on what I can check/try?

Yep. It looks like the exception is it can't load the
PortletContainerFactory. Any ideas? Again, anyone running the latest
Pluto 2.0 with Tomcat 6.x?

Rooting around a little more ... actually I don't know at the moment
what class it can't find. The logging is only reporting the exception
name (noClassDefFound) but not the name of the class. The line that is
last reported being called when the exception occurs is
PortletContainerFactory factory =
PortletContainerFactory.getInstance();
If its in fact the PortletContainerFactory that can't be found it seems
weird as this is in the pluto jar in the Tomcat/lib dir.
Looks like I need to set a breakpoint to get more info.
Anyone running the latest Pluto 2.0 with Tomcat 6.x? Any ideas?

Actually if it has worked before I'm not sure. My initial email assumed
that Pluto 2 and 1.1 have the same classloader needs and I honestly
thought they did. What I have for my shared loader config is:
shared.loader=${catalina.base}/shared/classes,${catalina.base}/shared/lib/*.jar

Thanks. What should I set the shared.loader setting to? Also what is
different from the Pluto 2.0 in February 2008 and now as that one runs
fine in an Apache 6.0.16 environment without shared.loader being set to
anything.

You need to edit conf/catalina.properties and enable the shared
classloader. Tomcat 6 by default doesn't enable a classloader for
shared/lib where Pluto needs to put its JARs.
