I am using the 5.2.1 bundle and trying to remove the sample data. I am trying to following the instructions that says "Plugin Installation, Go to the Control Panel > Plugin Installation, search for 7cogs-hook and remove it". I don;t see this in that section or area. Any thing I am missing here?

Yeah I think somebody made a big "whoops" with the whole 7cogs thing. It's been discussed many times in the forums here.

To get a real default install: 1) delete the 7cogs folders from the webapps folder. 2) point liferay at a blank database via portal-ext.properties. 3) start Liferay.

Hey!

I followed the instructions above and noted, that the sample data was removed correctly, but when I add the "Activities" portlet and click on any activity, the following error occurs:

Status
Not Found
The requested resource was not found.

http://10.248.57.221:9090/c/wiki/find_page?pageResourcePrimKey=10499

Why is it still linking to /c/...?

My portal-ext.properties says:

default.logout.page.path=/web/tommy/welcome
default.landing.page.path=/group/tommy/welcome
company.default.home.url=/web/tommy/welcome

There must be another link anywhere in the tomcat directory which tells Liferay to link to /c/...but i cant find it...

I wish they'd put portal-ext.properties.DEFAULT in webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes so that when I start doing an slocate I can find the *&^%#$@ thing!

Should this be a hint to search in portal-ext.properties.default? Cause I cannot find this file within the whole "Tomcat" directory...

You won't find it because it's NOT there! They don't include one - hence my bitter whinging emoticon about that sad fact.

At least on my Ubuntu server it's

/opt/liferay/tomcat-whatever version/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/portal-ext.properties

If it's not there, you'll have to create it. You can adjust your path based on how you have it installed and then use any text editor to create the file.

You've to created the portal-ext.properties since legacy version of liferay. Basically it is use to overwrite the configuration in portal.properties

You can find the legacy properties files for your reference in ../WEB-INF/classes

Yah, but how hard would be to put in an empty one named portal-ext.properties.DEFAULT so that you can search for it.

They could even put in a lot of common stuff and have it commented out.

Then you'd just have to copy the file to portal-ext.properties and edit it emoticon
