Hi,

I have some problems to run correctly Liferay. I have a Tomcat 7 installed and I have to install Liferay outside of Tomcat. so I did what the documentation said :
I modified apache-tomcat-7.0.26\conf\Catalina\localhost\ROOT.xml :

1<Context path="" docBase="D:\dev\liferay_ce_war" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
2...
3</Context>

In the portal-ext.properties, I have :

1resource.repositories.root=D:/dev/liferay/config
2jdbc.default.jndi.name=jdbc/LiferayPool

with D:\dev\liferay\config the directory containing /data, /deploy and /logs

When I run tomcat, Liferay is loaded but everytime, it launches the setup wizard even though the file portal-setup-wizard.properties is present in D:\dev\liferay\config

Moreover, If i do the setup and try to hot deploy Portlets, the deployment goes well and the war is exploded in the webapps dir of Tomcat but portlets are not displayed in the Add list. I'm compelled to restart Liferay to see them.

There must be something I missed for the configuration.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or information you can provide

Julien

Liferay will load setup only for first time. But if it can not find database then it will try to recreate that.. do you see any errors in logs.. or can you please share the log from startup.. ?

When I run tomcat, Liferay is loaded but everytime, it launches the setup wizard even though the file portal-setup-wizard.properties is present in D:\dev\liferay\config

The setup up wizard is not able to write it's property file to file system. So that might be reason to why it is always visible.

Put

1 setup.wizard.enabled=false

to your portal-ext.properties file, then wizard is not visible.

So, it means that D:\dev\liferay\config is not accessible for Liferay. Hence I should move this config directory in the liferay_home dir ?
