Deployment hangs....

[David Proba, modificado hace 12 años.]

Hey guys,

I have a very strange problem:
Suddenly, I can't deploy portlets anymore, I can still deploy hooks, but no portlets. I didn't try other plugins. I already tried to delete portlet folder of webapss, I deleted complete tomcat/temp folder, I looked into tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost and wanted to delete all xml files but ROOT.xml but there is only ROOT.xml in. I have no more ideas. Please help.

13:26:12,705 INFO  [AutoDeployDir:167] Processing Dings-portlet-6.1.0.1.war

After that, nothing happens, Dings-portlet-6.1.0.1.war is still placed in deploy dir and I can't deploy nothing more... After restarting liferay/tomcat, I can deploy hooks successfully. When I try to deploy a portlet the same thing happens....

Thx for help

Running Liferay 6.0.6 GA4 bundled with tomcat on o a Debian VM, using IDE 1.4 and deploying portlets with 6.1.0-SNAPSHOT SDK for JSF reasons (until now it was working perfectly)

If you can't use 6.0.6 SDK, why don't you just upgrade your Liferay to 6.1.0GA?

[David Proba, modificado hace 12 años.]

Oh, I will upgrade asap...
I'm developing a couple of plugins for a customer since over 6 months. At that time 6.1 wasn't available, my first plugins were still jsp, but as soon as 6.1.0 SDK was available I migrated to JSF. I hope to use 6.1 for production, but I want to test it and now I have to make some plugins fur testing issues...

Well here's the thing. The SDK knows how to build plugins for the version of the SDK. So you're using a 6.1 SDK, you're actually building portlets that would be most compatible w/ 6.1, and offer no guarantee of working under 6.0.

Use the 6.0.6 SDK until you're ready for the 6.1 Environment in production. That's when you upgrade the SDK to 6.1...

[David Proba, modificado hace 12 años.]

Ok... So I will need to test 6.1 earlier - involutary.
I just wonder how it is possible that I deployed portlets a couple of hundred times on my dev installation in this constallation (6.1 SDK ==> 6.0.6) and suddenly it does not work anymore, I just dpo not understand it

[David H Nebinger, modificado hace 12 años.]

Well, w/o knowing your portlet code additions, environmental changes (i.e. did you change jar versions, properties files, etc.), Liferay changes (settings in control panel, etc), it's really hard to say.

[David Proba, modificado hace 12 años.]

Ok... do you know Murphy's Law ?
Such things happen only in moments when you're in hurry

Do you have some experiences with 6.1 ?
Is there a difference between Glassfisch and Tomcat bundle regarding stability ?
To be honest, I would prefer Glassfish but as far as I knwo LF was developed on Tomcat, so it's a hard deciscion.
Any experiences or suggestions ?

[David H Nebinger, modificado hace 12 años.]

Liferay's compatible with many application containers, but some do give you fits (i.e. I think there were issues w/ auto deploy w/ WebLogic, but I don't remember the details and don't remember if they've been fixed).

I think there's lots of folks using Glassfish, so you should be okay...

Hello Devid,

Thanks for input, but I'm using the same SDK and same liferay and still I get this error, and I'm deploying first time correctly but when I try to re-deploy it, That time it will shows me hook while it is a port let. and It will stop at one point. For your reference I'm attaching log below. please look into this .

ok, I tried to dirty "fix" it:

• renamed liferay dir
• unzipped liferay
• started and stopped new installation
• copied old service jars to tomcat/lib/ext folder
• copied old setenv.sh (because of java opts)
• copied old portal-ext.properties
• started new liferay installation

The same thing, I can not deploy portlets... WTF, how is this possible ?!?

If you're on a development environment, try creating a new database.

[Tom Mahy, modificado hace 11 años.]

im having the exact same problem.
If i start with a clean DB everything works. But this is an upgraded db from 6.0.6 to 6.1GA.
Since the upgrade we are unable to deploy portlets anymore.

I know GA2 is out but we cant use it since it doesnt work with solr.

Any other advice ?
I do not get any errors during startup.

[Hitoshi Ozawa, modificado hace 11 años.]

Why can't use Solr with GA2. There's a plugin available at Marketplace.
