[gentoo-user] Tomcat+portlet

[Johannes Skov Frandsen]

Hi everybody

Having just installed tomcat 6, and tried to familiarize myself with the
folder layout differences between the standard tomcat distribution and
the gentoo distribution I have moved on to my next (and must important)
task: installing a portlet container.

I can see that the need files should be there as  the portlet driver
appears to be installed
(/usr/share/tomcat-6/portlet-container/driver/portletdriver.war) but how
do I access the interface so I can deploy my portlets?

I can't seem to access it from

 http://localhost:8080/manager/html/

Any pointers appreciated, and if you know some good links to info about
running tomcat-6 on gentoo I would love to get my hands on them as well.

It's been sometime since I installed Tomcat and can't remember what I did to 
get it going.  Have you had a look here:

http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Apache_Ant_and_Jakarta_Tomcat

The linked document suggest to cp your portletdriver.war 
into /opt/tomcat-6/webapps/ or something like that.

HTH.
