I have Jetspeed 2 built and running using the following environment:
Tomcat 5.0.28 MySQL 4.0.17 I'm trying to deploy my first portlet using the instructions at http://wiki.apache.org/portals/Jetspeed2/DeployingCustomPortlets. When I deploy the portlet, Jetspeed goes through the hot deploy sequence. Here is my output: INFO: Loading portlet application from web archive C:\apache\tomcat\webapps\jetspeed\WEB-INF\deploy\MyFirstPortlet.war INFO: Preparing to (re) deploy portlet app "DougsApp" INFO: Deploying portlet applicaion WAR MyFirstPortlet.war INFO: Portlet application deployment target directory is C:\apache\tomcat\webapps\jetspeed/..//DougsApp Writing out infused web.xml for DougsApp INFO: Did not load extended metadata as it most likely does not exist. java.io.FileNotFoundException: Unable to locate file or path C:\apache\tomcat\webapps\jetspeed\..\DougsApp\WEB-INF\jetspeed-portlet.xml INFO: Loading web.xml into memory....

When I view the Jetspeed main page, I get the following error below in the new portlet window. Thanks for the help. I'm looking forward to getting more involved in the Jetspeed2. - Doug org.apache.jetspeed.container.window.FailedToRetrievePortletWindow:
