Problem deploying JBoss Portal in JBoss AS

[altaf]

hi,

i have just started using JBoss Portal 2.2.0 and i'm trying to deploy it in JBoss Application server 4.0.3SP1. when i do so i'm getting a lot of errors. i'm using SQL Server 2000 as the database. i have copied jboss-portal.sar,portal-forums.ear,portal-sqlserver-ds.xml and pasted in $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy. but i'm getting a lot of errors and i'm unable to proceed on. i'm curious to see atleast one portal in jboss.

Can anybody tell me what should i do or if anybody can give me the steps of how to run portal in jboss then that would be great.

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,
Altaf.

1. Download the JBoss Portal source project.

2. Build it and deploy it.

3. Download MySQL 4.1 and install it.

4. Create a new schema in MySQL
called "jbossportal"

5. Create a new user in MySQL called "portal" with
password "portalpassword" and give him all
access rights to the jbossportal schema.

6. Goto section 2.1.3 to 2.1.4 of the JBoss Portal User Guide
and follow the instructions for setting up the database datasource.

7. Goto section 2.5.3 Rebuilding the DB tables to
recreate the database tables with their
associated data. This does not usually happen
correctly when you first launch JBoss AS.
Goto to the online docs as they are the only ones that have this
particuar section:
http://docs.jboss.com/jbportal/v2.0Final/user- guide/en/html/installation.html

8. Drop the portal-mysql-ds.xml file into the
\server\default\deploy directory.

9. Launch JBOSS AS "default"

10. Goto URL: http://localhost:8080/portal

11. Done.

Any thoughts on that.
