JBoss Portlet Container Demo Portal

Installation

• If you downloaded one of the bundled distributions, the only thing you have to do is decompress it.

• If you are trying to install from the source distribution (assuming $PC_HOME as the root directory for the source distribution):

1. build portlet container

2. There should be 3 directories in $PC_HOME/test/target/portal:

• as42: contains the files needed to deploy on JBoss Application Server 4.2.x

• tomcat: contains the files needed to deploy on Tomcat 6.0.x

• samples: contains some JSR-286 portlets that are used by the demo portal

JBoss AS installation

1. Copy $PC_HOME/test/target/portal/as42/simple-portal and the content of {$PC_HOME/test/target/portal/samples{font} to your AS 4.2.x deploy directory

2. There is no step 2!

Tomcat installation

1. Copy {$PC_HOME/test/target/portal/tomcat/simple-portal.war{font} and the content of {$PC_HOME/test/target/portal/samples{font} to your Tomcat 6.0.x webapps directory

2. Copy the content of {$PC_HOME/test/target/portal/tomcat/copy-to-tomcat-lib{font} to your Tomcat 6.0.x lib directory

Running

• Launch your servlet container:

• Tomcat: cd $CATALINA_HOME/bin; ./startup.sh (or the equivalent for your platform)

• JBoss AS: cd $JBOSS_HOME/bin; ./run.sh (or the equivalent for your platform)

• Point your browser to http://localhost:8080/simple-portal
