| |
| | Hi Paul... I got Liferay Portal 6 from svn trunk.... I can't see it available on download section right now. Anyway I've build it from the source and got it deployed.. I've run into some problems which I could pass thought... that I post here. 1 -> ant deploy fails if a previous compile target is not specified. 2 -> couldn't find any task that configures tomcat (I'm using tomcat 6 by the moment) ... jars are copied into TOMCAT_HOME/lib/ext but the catalina.properties file that must be changed in way to load these jars are not updated (I've manually done that). 3 -> on deploy I got an error related to a class that does some ckeck: 17:50:28,392 WARN [MagicMimeMimeDetector:540] eu.medsea.mimeutil.detector.InvalidMagicMimeEntryException: Invalid Magic Mime Entry: [VOLUME1\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SHIMENG.DLL\DEVICE\HARDDISKVOL]: file "/etc/magic.mime": before or at line 1 eu.medsea.mimeutil.detector.InvalidMagicMimeEntryException: Invalid Magic Mime Entry: [VOLUME1\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SHIMENG.DLL\DEVICE\HARDDISKVOL] at eu.medsea.mimeutil.detector.MagicMimeEntry.<init>(MagicMimeEntry.java:84) I'm currently on Linux (Debian Lenny) so...I guess or this is configurable or some harcoding some where ...(Will check it later right now is not critical..) 4 -> portal war is not correctly packed... themes are not build ..when launch browser to access portal page blanks since on themes directory (classic and control_panel) only exists the _diffs folder so ...VM templates are not loaded (I've updated manually those folder with right content and I can use the portal now). 7 -> today I got some error on firebug saying that jquery not exist... but it works and actually exists.. (not got it before) but things keep working.. 8 -> Today I've started again the portal tomcat instance... and (I didn't have it clear yesterday when I was playing with it) ... but I think portal data are not being persisted.. all changes I've made yeterday (added some pages and portlets) are lost .. and I'm asked for accept license again...like I've never been logged into the portal (I'm using mysql ...) and I'll try to confirm this...which is a big issue!! Right now what I have seen was really nice... love this new version .. I've been playing around with search .,.. love it  Now just some quick questions... 1 -> I've seen some maven... I guess plugins and portal are starting to be mavenized finally... 2 -> I've seen a mix too of FTL template files and VM files... Will Freemarker be the preferred method to templating from now on ? ... Journal content supports Freemarker templates on this version and how to 3 -> this one I can't figure out... ext development environment... How to build it? not found any target on ant build files like the previous build-ext target. Thanks and regards, PF Posted on 2/20/10 10:11 AM. |
| |
| |
| | Issue 8 ... was incorrect... I'm starting hypersonic now and not mysql... some deployment must not have copy portal-ext.properties.
cheers Posted on 2/20/10 10:22 AM in reply to Peter Fox. |
| |
| |
| | Some details:
Issue 7: Liferay 6 does not include by default jQuery (portal.properties) and I was using my custom theme on it that uses it. Solved
Issue 3: made some tests and it's related to mime-util.jar and Magic-Mime detector... I've sent to mime-util dev just a test that reproduces the error. (is not Liferay related).
issues 1, 2 ,4. Confirmed! Cheers. Posted on 2/20/10 3:45 PM in reply to Peter Fox. |

| | preview release link for liferay 6.0? Posted on 2/25/10 8:36 PM in reply to Paul Hinz. |
| |
| |
| | er ... looked at the page, can only see version fives, not a version six.
I did try the nightly build, but when I hit startup.bat it just blinked a console window at me and did nothing more.
Feeling miserable now. Posted on 2/26/10 5:40 AM in reply to Paul Hinz. |
| |
| |
| | Where can I get the Liferay 6 build? I read somewhere CE was supposed to come on 16th and at other that it will come on 26th, but still can't find it anywhere . . . Posted on 2/27/10 11:41 PM. |
| |
| |
| | Here are the early releases:
http://releases.liferay.com/portal/nightly/ Posted on 2/28/10 5:04 AM in reply to Rohit Rai. |
| |
| |
| | If I'm currently using Liferay Portal 5.2.3 bundled with Tomcat 6.0.0 what is the easiest way to update.
Thanks, |
| |
| |
| | I tried the same in a windows console with the 3/2/2010 nightly build.
C:\dev\lr\liferay-portal-6.0.0\tomcat-6.0.24\bin>startup.bat The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly This environment variable is needed to run this program NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE
C:\dev\lr\liferay-portal-6.0.0\tomcat-6.0.24\bin>echo %JAVA_HOME% C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk1.5.0_16
As you can see from echo command, JAVA_HOME is defined. There seems to be some issues with the windows .bat scripts. |
| |
| |
| | In each of the nightly builds, I have found two files that need to be modified. They are both in the liferay/tomcat/ folder area:
bin/setenv.bat The first four lines I put a "rem" at the begining of each line. rem if not "%JAVA_HOME%" == "" ( rem set JAVA_HOME= rem )
rem set JRE_HOME=%CATALINA_HOME%/jre1.6.0_18/win
set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Dfile.encoding=UTF8 -Djava.security.auth.login.config="%CATALINA_HOME%/conf/jaas.config" -Dorg.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.ENABLE_CLEAR_REFERENCES=false -Duser.timezone=GMT -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m
conf/catalina.properties I change the line that begins with "common.loader=" from
common.loader=${catalina.base}/lib,${catalina.base}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar
to
common.loader=${catalina.base}/lib,${catalina.base}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.base}/lib/ext/*.jar |

| |
| | Hi Paul!
Which liferay 6 source branch would you recommend to download from the trunk?
Any place we could find the hints/tools that help to convert 5.2.2 to 6.0?
More info on using the EXT project inside the SDK?
Thank you,
Jeff Posted on 3/31/10 1:58 PM. |

| |
| | I just downloaded, built and deployed from trunk.
It looks very nice!
I did find a number of usability issues that would be worth reporting, that is, if you guys consider this is a good time to report. I could have created LEP tickets but thought I would ask first. Sometimes a simple punch list, when there are a good number of small issues helps better.
Please advise! Posted on 4/6/10 12:58 PM in reply to Paul Hinz. |

| | No updates on liferay 6 since a long time. When is liferay 6 is going to be launched? Posted on 4/28/10 12:40 PM. |

| | The new look is really great and I'm looking forward to v6. I wanted to test out Liferay 6 with the current data I have in Liferay 5.2.3 however importing the data always yields and invalid data error. One thing I noticed though was that v6 eats more memory than 5.2.3 and is quite slow when it comes to rendering. It might be my machine but 5.2.3 run smoothly on it. Also when you go to the control panel, the "Back to Guest" link is always localhost:8080 and not the correct hostname. Posted on 5/4/10 6:20 PM. |

| | Road map for liferay 6 is not updated since a long time. Any updates on dates? http://www.liferay.com/web/guest/community/wiki/-/wiki/Main/RoadMap Posted on 6/2/10 3:33 AM in reply to Paul Hinz. |

| | CE Release candidate 2 will be posted in the next few days. Thanks for keeping pressure on me. |

| |
| | Hi Paul, We are planning to go for Enterprise Edition of Liferay but would want to deploy Liferay 6. What do you think about release dates for Liferay 6 EE? Does it look feasible around July end? Is there any time tracker publicly available?
Thanks, Vineet Posted on 6/8/10 2:17 AM in reply to Paul Hinz. |

| |
| | Hi!~ Awesome work. =)
When's the next release? I've been encountering quite a number of bugs in the current Liferay 6. I'm working on a huge projects and some concerns I have right now are as follows: - editor not wysiwyg (from: Control Panel -> Web Content -> [open one web content] - Roles (Define Permission) options to choose not showing
Massive thanks. Cheers! |
