JBoss Forum Portlet 2.4

[mmontoni]

Hello,

I am using JBoss Portal 2.4 and I would like to add the Jboss forum portlet compatible for that version. Any ideas where I can download that portlet? I tried on cvs but it is not working...I am wondering if I am acesing the wrong file (cvs co - JBoss_Portal_Branch_2_4 jboss-portal-2.4 ).

Thanks,
Mariella.

The Portal source is now in subversion. Try this instead:

svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/portal/branches/JBoss_Portal_Branch_2_4/

Hi Peter,

I tried using Tortoise but I am getting an error.

Error: REPORT request failed on '/repos/portal/!svn/vcc/default'
Error: REPORT of '/repos/portal/!svn/vcc/default': 400 Bad Request (http://anonsvn.jboss.org)

Do you know what that means?

Thanks,

-Mariella.

No, I don't know what that means, but I have had all kinds of problems using TortoiseSVN to get source out fo the JBoss SVN repository, but using the command line seems to work fine. Just add the TortoiseSVN installation directory to your PATH (it includes all of the SVN command line utilities).

Hello Mariella

I would suggest checking your firewall and/or antivirus. They might block http packets sent by TortoiseSVN.
Anyway, use

svn co http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/portal/branches/JBoss_Portal_Branch_2_4/

as PeterJ said. It is the most reliable sollution :-)

Hi guys,

thank you very much for the tip but it is not working still. I added C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN in my path but it can't find the svn command. Also, I thought that in order to this to work I should have the svn.exe in tortoisesvn and I can't find it there....

Thanks,
Mariella.

Sorry, but I got confused between TortoiseCVS (which comes with the CVS command line executables) and TortoiseSVN (which does not have the SVN commands). Looks like you will have to download Subversion to get the commands.

Hi,

I did download Subversion, but I still get the same problem...I strongly believe it is a proxy issue. I am working on that right now. After I am done downloading to I have to build Jboss portal branch 2.4 in order to build the forum portlet...? I notice the foums depends on some jars from Jboss portal.

Hi

Maybe this will help you: http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#proxy
Yes, you have to build Portal before building Forums.
