Jboss Portal installation errors

[sbarreros]

Hello everyone,

I am running JBoss [Zion] 4.0.5.GA on Suse Linux 10.0 and I am trying to install JBoss portal 2.6.2

I have setup the datasource and tables have been created in my database when I stated the server the first time. However I get the error messages when starting the server and when I try to access the portal.
Below are some of the errors I get when starting the server. The last error message I get when I actually try to access the portal.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!

[sbarreros]

Any ideas? I followed the installation guide to install the portal... I don't know why this is not working ???

I am looking into implementing a form of portal for my company I would really like this to work, so we don't have to change to another server.

THanks

[sbarreros]

One more thing I am using jdk 1.5.0 I think this should be fine, correct?
I have also read that the portal uses EJB3 Do I need to install something separate or should jboss be able to run EJB3??

Thanks again

[peterj]

JBoss AS 4.0.5 does not come with EJB3 support, unless you install it using the JEMS installer. But then there is a warning in the portal docs not to use the JEMS installer with 4.0.5 because the portal has issues with it.

I think your best bet is to go with JBoss AS 4.2.1 or 4.2.2.

[sbarreros]

Is there any way that I can upgrade to 4.2.1 or 2 without having to rebuild my existing environment?

Is it a matter of downloading 4.2.1/2 and copying it over my existing server?

I would really like to save myself of going though the hassle of reconfiguring my whole server again, as I have made changes to many configuration files and datasource files..
