Q: If it was working before, what have you done to make it stop
working?
A: I started making modifications to the ODT plugin's
stylesheets. While testing I noticed it wasn't working. After
searching the archives, I decided to try checking out a fresh
copy from svn. Unfortunately (after changing $FORREST_HOME to
point to the fresh svn checkout) I receive the same error.
The plugin is not defined in any of plugins descriptor file
because it have never been deployed in the forrest site.
Correct evaluation (i.e. not in the whiteboard plugin descriptor
file), wrong reason.
All plugins should appear in the descriptor file. These entries
must be added manually at this time There is an issue to generate
them from the plugin build information, I've done about 50% of the
work towards this, but not found the time for the other 50% yet.
Two solutions :
First the simple one :
cd $FORREST_HOME/plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.odt//
$FORREST_HOME/tools/ant/bin/ant local-deploy
Second, much more complicated but no need of further local-
deployment :
Define the plugin in a file of your choice (let's say
MyPluginsDescriptor.xml)
Why not just add it to the whiteboard descriptor file?

Thank you both! I've added it to the whiteboard descriptor file. I
was going to submit a PATCH to whiteboard-plugins.xml, but I've just
noticed an OpenDocument plugin (I thought that was what I was working
on! :-). As that question is mildly off-topic I'll ask about it.
BTW, in case I or someone else needs this info Cyriaque meant for me
to go here:
cd $FORREST_HOME/whiteboard/plugins/org.apache.forrest.plugin.input.odt
(in Cyriaque's haste to help, 'whiteboard/' was omitted)...
