Ditto. It looks like the zip file is corrupted.

Congratulations and Thanks to entire Liferay team. Awesome Work.

This zip file works and I could run Liferay without any issues.

Ran it and at the outset, it looks great. Checked couple of things randomly. Workflow doesn't seem to work. When I try to create new workflow under Workflow Portlet via control panel, it just throws an error. Nothing has been emitted in Tomcat log.

I know it may take some time to stabiliize but just wanted to let the team know it.

Again.. hats off.

Cheers,

Raj

Hi Raj - We've found that there can be some issues between workflow and the 7cogs sample data that we shipped 6.0 with (see http://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPS-11273) - if you start a clean bundle with just Kaleo-workflow deployed it should work without any problem.

Thanks guys.

Just to let you know, the link to Liferay 6.0.3 Javadocs in the additional files page for liferay 6.0.3 (http://www.liferay.com/downloads/liferay-portal/additional-files) is broken.

Sorry, but having used the release candidates I feel this release is premature. It is not stable enough to be dubbed a GA

There is no liferay-portal-dependencies-6.0.3.zip file. It may not have changed from 6.0.2, but a new zip should be created that has the same version #, please!

Hi,

Thanks for the good work. I noticed that the reports-console-portlet which was working in release 6rc2 has stopped working in 6.0.3GA. I have already posted details about the error in another thread -http://www.liferay.com/community/forums/-/message_boards/message/4450096

Liferay 6 looks nice but I have the feeling the upgrade procedure hasn't been tested very well. I tried, with my colleague Hubert, to upgrade from 5.2.3 -> 6.0.3 without success. Hope the upgrade procedure will be updated asap.

Due to there not be a dependencies zip, we are unable to install liferay-portal.war, since the portal-service.jar files has changed, so we receive the following stack trace:

Please upload a dependencies.zip file!!

Pulling the portal-service.jar out of one of the bundled zips (I chose tomcat) is a workaround for me, but please upload the dependency zip (isn't this an automated process?)

Brian Chan

Just uploaded the dependencies zip. Missed that one somehow. Here it is:
