[jira] [Commented] (JS2-1357) CLONE - Failed to load portlet org.apache.jetspeed.portlets.layout.MultiColumnPortlet

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-1357?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16048568#comment-16048568 ] 

David Sean Taylor commented on JS2-1357:
----------------------------------------

The directory looks fine. 

> I'm using same Tomcat installation which came with "Jetspeed-2.3.1",

Does the Tomcat installation run or does it have the same problem?
Maybe try a different Tomcat.

Also, check the log files in $TOMCAT_HOME/logs for stack traces. Attach any related stack traces to this issue.

Which directory did you install into? 
I don't run Windows, but I've seen problems where having a space in the directory name can cause class loader issues. For example if you installed into C:\Documents and Settings\<username>
Maybe try running everything out of something like C:\apache\jetspeed

> After Building and Deploying a Custom Jetspeed Portal step,  I tried to start up the portal but failed to load page. (https://portals.apache.org/jetspeed-2/tutorial/01/run-it.html)
> The page shows below:
> Failed to load portlet org.apache.jetspeed.portlets.layout.MultiColumnPortlet: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.jetspeed.velocity.JetspeedPowerToolFactory cannot be cast to org.apache.jetspeed.velocity.JetspeedPowerToolFactory
> I believe this issue is being experienced only on Windows platform, as Jetspeed-2 is platform independent, so I hope resolution for this issue will be considered.
