Description

When the AJAX target servlet adds a channel, it attempts to instantiate it. If this step fails, the user's page fails to reload, creating the impression that the channel wasn't added to the layout. We need to catch and handle this exception.

At least part of this issue is being caused by the /PlutoInvoker missing string that's printed out at the beginning of any request that references a missing portlet. When the ajax servlet attempts to instantiate the new portlet, that message is printed at the beginning of the returned xml, which prevents the javascript from parsing it correctly.

This turned out only to be an issue for unfound portlets, as described in the previous comment. I've changed the javascript function to expect text back rather than xml, so it should work now.
