Hi,

I have deployed  JBOSS contact collab portlet (http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/portletswap/portlets/bundles/ContactPortlet.zip) to webcenter (weblogic) portlet container, but when portlet is access we see following exception

Caused by: org.hibernate.HibernateException: Could not find datasource

I would higly appreciate any help in resolving this. I understand that it is not able to locate PortalDS. But i have following questions.

1) how do i create this data source.

2) What DB table should i create in oracle DB that i am going to use.

3) How to make this work with oracle db.

Thanks in advance,
