Hello,

I'm evaluating MyEclipse for the first time. My goal is to create a portlet and deploy it on either IBM, BEA (Oracle), or an open source portal server. As such, I really need a single ide environment to do this development that is agnostic to the portal server.

I found the following tutorial
http://www.myeclipseide.com/documentation/quickstarts/portlet_overview/

I tried following this tutorial but the menu item My Eclipse/Project Capabilities/Add JSR 168 Portlet Capabilities is *always* greyed out after I created a Dynamic Web Project. Are there some missing steps?

Thanks...Jim

Jim,
MyEclipse does not support Dynamic web projects. What version of MyEclipse are you working with and how did you set it up?

Can you go to MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details and paste it here for me.

Hello,

As for the no support of Dynamic Web Projects, I did the following:

1. File/New/Other
2. Select the "Show All Wizards"
3. Scroll down and expand Web
4. Under Web is the Dynamic Web Project

I'll say this though: In the MyEclipse title bar, it does say WTP Java EE (MyEclipse incompatible). Is that what you meant?

For the installation details:

Yes.

Did you setup WTP with MyEclipse ?

I would suggest you grab the All in One installer from our download page and use that to setup MyEclipse to a brand new location. That should sort the issue out. Let me know if the problem persists.
