[13:01:29 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> Hi, I was wondering if anyone could recommend a tutorial for learning portlets. I'm having a little trouble setting one up to work with uportal 2.4.3 and tomcat 4.1

[13:28:53 EST(-0500)] <apetro> scheibk http://www.unicon.net/node/838 ?
[13:31:31 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> i tried following this example http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/UPC/Portlet+Example
[13:32:19 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> i keep getting this error when i try to see it in uportal
[13:32:36 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> javax.portlet.PortletException: Unable to find dispatcher for context: null
[14:02:30 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> apetro: I tried following the example you sent me, but i still get the same exception. Is there something that i need to configure in tomcat 4.1?
[14:03:45 EST(-0500)] <holdorph> you cant use tomcat 4 with uportal 2.4, i believe
[14:03:55 EST(-0500)] <holdorph> at least I don't know of anyone who ever has
[14:04:11 EST(-0500)] <holdorph> is there a reason you're trying to use such an old release of tomcat and uportal?
[14:04:57 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> we're in the process of upgrading to 3.0, but I need to develop a channel for what we have currently
[14:05:26 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> http://arch.juniata.edu is the location of uportal, not that you can login. It's running on tomcat 4.1
[14:05:40 EST(-0500)] <holdorph> do you have any portlets running?
[14:05:57 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> nope, we do all of our channels by including php scripts
[14:05:59 EST(-0500)] <holdorph> i'm wondering if maybe it's not possible to do portlets in tomcat 4.x
[14:06:10 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> that's what i'm thinking
[14:06:31 EST(-0500)] <holdorph> i've never heard of anyone doing so, but you can post to uportal-user mailing list and ask
[14:07:04 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> what is the uportal-user mailing list?
[14:07:45 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> this is my first attempt at doing anything with uportal. I'm the first student that they are letting develop a portlet channel.

[14:07:59 EST(-0500)] <scheibk> thank you
