Description

I misconfigured my portlet but I'm getting a not so nice PortletException "class not found" from org.apache.portals.bridges.struts.StrutsPortlet line 148

It doesn't help
Which class ?

Also this doesn't seems to be a "class not found" problem but more a "this is not the expected instance of the class" problem
If the class wasn't found the code line 139 Class.forName(contextProviderClassName); would throw a ClassNotFoundException
