Matteo, this error is caused because you need to take an extra assembly
step in order to add some pluto-specific entries into web.xml before
installing your web application to the server.  There are plugins for Ant
and Maven 2 in order to do this.  This page has some more info:

http://portals.apache.org/pluto/v11/deploying.html

If you want to do it in Ant, it goes something like this:

<taskdef name="assemble" classname="org.apache.pluto.ant.AssembleTask">
	<classpath>
		<path refid="pluto-ant" />
		<path refid="pluto-cp" />
	</classpath>
</taskdef>
<assemble
	webxml="${web.dir}/WEB-INF/web.xml"
	portletxml="${web.dir}/WEB-INF/portlet.xml"
	destfile="${gen.dir}/pluto-web.xml" />
<war destfile="${dist.dir}/${ant.project.name}.war" basedir="${web.dir}"
	webxml="${gen.dir}/WEB-INF/pluto-web.xml">
	<classes dir="${classes.dir}">
		<include name="**/*" />
	</classes>
	<lib dir="${pluto.inc}">
		<include name="**/*.jar" />
	</lib>
	<exclude name="**/web.xml" />
</war>

Of course, modify this for your build environment as needed.  Hope it
works out.
