I can verify that I saw this behavior on PostgreSQL back on 1.4, so I
suspect it's not DB dependant. I use a custom authentication class and do
my own caching, so never really pursued it. (And, in fact, forgot about it
until this message jogged my memory.)

To do this, I created a service that, given a file, caches the file and
generates a random string (actually, a base-64-encoded 128 bit random
number).
The caller then uses this string as a parameter on the download url. The
raw screen grabs the string from the parameter, and fetches the file
The original template is stored in the registry. Read it from the registry
and, upon completion of your action, set the template back to the original
one.
FWIW, I have arrived at a point where I place the template selection logic
in buildNormalContext, including Step 1..n templates for
a portlet. Can you elaborate?

I use JSPs, but I think the approach that I use will work for Velocity as
well.
Basically, what I do is add template selection logic to buildNormalContext.
In that method, I look at the current state of the portlet (more on that in
a sec) and then select the appropriate template. For example, if

Actually, the content type has already been set long before the portlet gets
called. You need to start at the beginning of the render pipeline,
specifically with the screen.
You have to create your own screen. Do this by extending
org.apache.turbine.modules.screens.RawScreen, implementing
You can exit your buildNormalContext method without doing anything by
setting a flag in the request.
Put the following line in your action:
rundata.getRequest().setAttribute(skip_normal, new Boolean(true));
And put the following at the start of buildNormalContext:
Boolean reqVal = (Boolean)
I long ago established the habit of surrounding the body of my actions with
try/catch blocks to be sure that I see the exceptions that would otherwise
be hidden.
My boilerplate action code looks something like this:
public void doXxx(RunData rundata, Portlet portlet) {
Log.debug(
In retrospect, it seems we didn't give enough detail.
If you look into the jetspeed code that dispatches events, you'll see that
it traps exceptions from the doXxx methods without logging them (at least,
that¹s what it did the last time I walked through it). Even if your method

This would suggest that the best way to approach this problem would be to
create a custom screen class where you can create custom getContentType and
getContent methods, as is typical for downloading files.
You could then reference this in the embed tag.
