Im struggling a long time now with the following problem: I generate a very basic (or complex) example portlet with xmlportletfactory. Deploy it to Liferay, add it on a page and try to use it. I can not add a new entry (error message in view) and the server log sais:

ERROR [http-bio-8080-exec-1][PortletBeanLocatorUtil:42] BeanLocator is null for servlet context coursesExample

Environment is:

  • liferay-portal-6.1.2-ce-ga3
  • liferay-plugins-sdk-6.1.1
  • XMLPortletFactory_6.x-v2.2
  • Tomcat/7.0.40
  • Postgres 9.2
  • Java 1.6.0_45

I searched the whole web and find a lot of similiar problems on the liferay forums, but nothing helped me. I posted it also to xmlportletfactory forums http://www.xmlportletfactory.org/forum/-/message_boards/message/145826, but still no answer yet.

What can I do?

Have you tried with a Liferay 6.1.1 or 6.1.0? I have a modified version of xmlpf that runs on 6.1.1, and i can share it on github. – Daniele Baggio
Thank you. The guys from xmlpf are gonna look at this issue the next weeks. – Martin Dames

In my case, for some reason I changed the project's name, and I started having the same "BeanLocator is null for servlet context..." problem. A couple of days later, I renamed my eclipse project to the same name I initially used, and everything went back to normal.

Could that be something related to your project's name as well?
