Hello Tobias,

thanks a lot for your reply. We already did this, but it was not as easy as described here. For example we had exception from jackrabbit regarding missing derby libs.

The question was, if there is any good reason why liferay is still bundled with the .16 version? Newer tomcat versions are available for months.

---

Unfortunately we also have many other open issues with liferay (I’m sure some of them just exist, because we did something wrong). Perhaps you can answer one of them? Any help would be greatly appreciated...

E.g. we didn’t manage to upgrade from our 5.0.1 version without problems. Although we tried the param for the old properties, we had role/rights issues with guest users. So we setup a clean 5.1.1 version and tried to export/import our 5.0.1 journal contents, but this was not possible.
*) How can we get all our existing 5.0.1 pages in the new 5.1.1 database?
*) Liferay doesn’t save the adjusted timezone properly. Sometimes we have “Samoa” instead of GMT+1.
*) The new chat portlet cannot handle German “Umlaute” (eg öäü) and we didn’t find a config param to solve this.
*) We didn’t find a way to allow users to modify their own Blog-posts after saving.
*) …

Thanks in advance!
Alexander

liferay 5.1.1 tomcat 6 bundle

2008-09-10T09:44:21Z

hi liferay guys!

why do you use the „old“ tomcat 6.0.16 release for the current liferay tomcat 6 bundle?

there have been many bugfixes in the .17 and current .18 release. above all there is a problem with the tomcat EL and JSF 1.2 in the .16 version. since 6.0.17 there is an additional system property (org.apache.el.parser.COERCE_TO_ZERO ) to solve this issue.

Blogs + Recent Bloggers Portlets

2008-08-01T15:57:49Z

I’m using liferay 5.0.1. The blog portlet works as expected, but when I add the „recent bloggers” portlet and click on the name links or pictures of the blog-authors I get the following error message:

An unexpected system error occurred.
No public page was found with the Blogs portlet.

Where can I specify a “public page” for the blog portlet? What does this error exactly mean?

TIA!

RE: Memory leaks in IE6 causes performance degradation

Although this is such a critical issue, there is not even one reply from the liferay team

RE: Browser Memory Increase using liferay

2008-06-26T15:34:26Z

The mentioned thread is from a colleague of mine. We have all these settings. I don’t think that the problem with the increasing memory has anything to do with this.

RE: Memory Leak in the Firfox and IE ?

2008-06-25T13:34:09Z

After just working about 1h with liferay 5.0.1 singed in as Administrator my firefox consumed over 600MB and got incredibly slow. In IE8 beta the whole (jedi)theme is displayed incorrectly (just have a look at the liferay.com site).

This problem is really critical. I really hope there will be a fix in 5.0.2!

Thanks Ivan for your reply. I just re-created some of them manually as you suggested.

Install CMS/Journal structures and templates

2008-06-24T23:06:16Z

Hi,

where can I download and install structures and templates for the cms journal? We have a fresh liferay 5.0.1 setup with a clean database and there are no structures and templates availabe.
When I use the tomcat bunde with the configured hsql db on my client, there are several installed, which are used for the liferay guest pages.
How can I transfer these to our new instance on the server or do I just have to run the "portal-data-cms-layout.sql"? I'm a little afraid messing up the db.

Thanks in advance!

RE: Journal Content - "full-size" image

2008-06-24T21:15:28Z

Just to let you know... the problem was a setting in the portal-ext.properties (portlet.css.enabled=false). Liferay renders the "Look and Feel" link, but gets the mentioned javascript error when the setting is disabled.

Thanks again for your replies!

RE: Browser Memory Increase using liferay

2008-06-24T17:50:52Z

I have the same problem. After some time using liferay I always have to restart the browser (no matter, if it is an IE or firefox). I think it has to do with the ajax javascripts. I don't have the memory problem with the IE if I'm not logged in as Admin.

RE: Journal Content - "full-size" image

2008-06-24T17:36:23Z

I just tried that and before adding an article the "Look and Feel" option is availabe, but not callable
There is a javascript error 'Liferay.PortletCSS' is null or not an object' (in every theme I tried and also in both browsers - IE & firefox).

I don't have any luck with liferay...

Thanks anyway!

RE: Journal Content - "full-size" image

2008-06-24T16:38:25Z

That's the problem... there is no "Look and Feel" icon. I'm using the jedi theme. Attached is a screenshot of the "Journal Content" portlet (signed in as Administrator).

RE: Journal Content - "full-size" image

2008-06-24T16:13:51Z

Hi Mariano,
thanks for your reply. Where can I find the "Look and feel" option of the "Journal Content" portlet? There is just a "Configuration" dialogue available...

Regards,
Alexander

Journal Content - "full-size" image

2008-06-24T15:09:50Z

How can I make a journal content article with a full-size image like the liferay "social networking" pic on the liferay start page? I always get the white portlet border space. I wanted to select another "structure" or "template" in the journal editor, but couldn't find anything (the lists are empty, just showing a "No templates were found" message). I use a standard liferay 5.0.1 installation without any modifications.

TIA

RE: rendering & js-error problems: classic & jedi-theme a

2008-03-17T23:22:06Z

it seems no one of the liferay team cares about that topic...

the severe layout problems of the jedi theme only occur when logged in as admin user. if so, the headers of the portlets are completly wrong positioned.

Serious problems with jedi theme

There are serious problems with the jedi theme in IE6! Doesn't liferay support the version 6 anymore?

RE: JSF portlet liferay locale

2008-02-05T22:55:34Z

unfortunately no... the message bundles with the string translations work correctly, but the jsf internals (e.g. for conversion and validation of the request parameters) use the wrong locale/format.

RE: JSF portlet liferay locale

2008-02-05T19:57:33Z

hi,

have you (or anyone else) found a solution for the jsf locale problem in the meantime?

we are currently evaluating liferay for a community network. we use jsf 1.2 RI and facelets for our portlets. the locale is defined correctly, but we have problems with the jsf validation mechanism - e.g. if we use the float type for a property and the locale is set to german (de) we still can't use "," as decimal point (e.g. 9,90 --> error message: '9,9' must be a number between 1.4E-45 and 3.4028235E38 Example: 2000000000... 9.90 is ok, but incorrect).

any help is much appreciated!
