JBoss Forum 2.2.1 SP3 Error

[gruenewa]

Hello Developers,

I have just downloaded JBoss Portal (file: jboss-portal-2.2.1-SP3-bundled.zip) and JBoss Portal Forums (file: jboss-forums-2.2.1-SP3.zip). Then i installed JBoss Portal on a linux box using following commands:

unzip jboss-portal-2.2.1-SP3-bundled.zip
cd jboss-portal-2.2.1-SP3-bundled/
chmod u+x bin/*.sh
bin/run.sh

Then i deployed Forums Portlet using the following commands:

mkdir tmp
unzip jboss-forums-2.2.1-SP3.zip -d tmp
cp -r tmp/portal-forums.ear/portal-forums.war jboss-portal-2.2.1-SP3-bundled/server/default/deploy/
rm -r tmp

and the server logs this error message:

Hello

I'm not sure but as far as I remember there were some issues with this bundled version of Portal and AS. Please try downloading JBoss Portal, JBoss AS and JBoss Forums as separate packages. I deployed Portal and Forums from those packages today and it worked for me fine.
