<p>Any time I try to publish my Portal project on a Websphere Portal 6.1 Server, I get the following error message:</p>

<pre><code>Portal project publishing is not supported on WebSphere Portal v6.1 Server
</code></pre>

<p>Is that really true or have I done something wrong?</p>

<p>I'm trying to deploy a portal project, with the underlying goal of publishing a new theme.</p>

<p>Unfortunately, any time I try to deploy, I get the error message listed above from the IDE and no errors in the console.</p>

<p>The RAD version is 7.0.0.7.</p>

Not sure this will help, but:
Limitation: Although the WebSphere
  Portal installer contains an advanced
  option to install an empty portal,
  Portal Designer relies on
  administration portlets for setting
  access control; therefore, publishing
  a portal project to an empty portal is
  not supported.
Are you trying to deploy a portlet or an entire portal project? What version of RAD are you using? Any other information in the error log? (Both within RAD & on WP server) Is the error message posted verbatim?
