You need to specify the agent jars in WebLogic's classpath. Since its a portal, you might have some authenticator jar under mbeantypes as well that needs to be in the classpath.Ankush

I am assuming you are working on UNIX. Can you print value for CLASSPATH once the startup script for weblogic has completed?Ankush
