RE: Problem with custom mode

Hello, thanks for answer

Yes I have also declared this part in my portlet.xml

		<supports>
			<mime-type>text/html</mime-type>
			<portlet-mode>edit</portlet-mode>
			<portlet-mode>help</portlet-mode>
			<portlet-mode>about</portlet-mode>
			<portlet-mode>print</portlet-mode>
		</supports>

Then I add 

		<custom-portlet-mode>
			<description>Mode pour indiquer l'auteur de la portlet par exemple</description>
			<name>about</name>
		</custom-portlet-mode>

		<custom-portlet-mode>
			<description>Mode pour l'impression</description>
			<name>print</name>
		</custom-portlet-mode> 

But is it enough?  Because when I test the supported mode in doView

		Enumeration modeEnum = request.getPortalContext().getSupportedPortletModes();
		writer.write("<p>Modes <br />");
		while (modeEnum.hasMoreElements()) {
			PortletMode pMode = (PortletMode) modeEnum.nextElement();
			PortletURL modeUrl = response.createRenderURL();
			modeUrl.setPortletMode(pMode);
			writer.write("<li> <a href=\"" + modeUrl.toString() + "\">" + pMode + "</a></li>");
		}
		writer.write("</p>");

I didn't retrieve my custom mode. 

My error appears when I tried to create a link on it :  javax.portlet.PortletModeException: unsupported Portlet Mode used: print

		PortletURL printModeUrl = response.createRenderURL();
		printModeUrl.setPortletMode(PRINT);


I have exactly the same probleme on Jboss and Jetspeed.

Thanks for your help.

I don't know what other restrictions uPortal might have, but one thing you at least need to do is specifying your portlet actually supports it.
Like:

   <portlet>
     ...
     <supports>
       <mime-type>text/html</mime-type>
       <portlet-mode>print</portlet-mode>
     </supports>
     ...
   </portlet>
