Setup Jboss Ent. With Liferay Portal
30 06 2008My Environment
Jboss Boss AS Ent. 4.3.0.G.A
LifeRay Portal 4.4.2
MySql 5.0.45 community
(Linux and Windows almost use the same setting steps)
1. run the Jboss AS installer to install it.
Windows : double click
Linux : terminal>java -jar enterprise-installer-4.3.0.GA-1.ep1.8.jar
2. install MySql from its installer.
3. download 3 files of liferay :
liferay-portal-4.4.2-with-dependencies.war
liferay-portal-dependencies-4.4.2.zip
liferay-portal-sql-4.4.2.zip
4. create an utf-8 database in your mysql, I use lportal as database name here.
mysql>create database lportal character set utf8;
5. unpack liferay-portal-sql-4.4.2.zip, import the database dump under [unpack]/create-minimal/create-minimal-mysql.sql
mysql -uroot lportal < [path from above]/create-minial-mysql.sql –default-character-set=utf8
6. open [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/deploy/jboss-web.deployer/conf/web.xml
Replace :
<servlet> <servlet-name>default</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>debug</param-name> <param-value>0</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>listings</param-name> <param-value>true</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet>
With :
<servlet> <servlet-name>default</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.apache.catalina.servlets.DefaultServlet</servletclass> <init-param> <param-name>debug</param-name> <param-value>0</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>listings</param-name> <param-value>false</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>input</param-name> <param-value>4096</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>output</param-name> <param-value>4096</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet>
7. create [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/deploy/liferay-ds.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?> <datasources> <local-tx-datasource> <jndi-name>jdbc/LiferayPool</jndi-name> <connection-url>jdbc:mysql://hostname:3306/lportal</connection-url> <driver-class>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driver-class> <user-name></user-name> <password></password> <min-pool-size>5</min-pool-size> </local-tx-datasource> </datasources>
8. Download mysql-connector-java-5.1.5-bin.jar, copy to [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/lib/
9. Unpack liferay-portal-dependencies-4.4.2.zip to [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/lib/
resulting structure will be like this :
[JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/lib/liferay-portal-dependencies-4.4.2/portlet.jar
/portal-kernel.jar
/portal-service.jar
10 .Setup mail properties, open [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/deploy/mail-service.xml
modify : User, Password, pop3.host, smtp.host, mail.from
11. Open [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/conf/login-config.xml, comment out the entire <application-policy name=”other”>
12. unpack liferay-portal-4.4.2-with-dependencies.war, rename the unpacked folder to liferay-portal.war
Move dom4j.jar, jaxen.jar from liferay-portal.war/WEB-INF/lib to [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/lib
Move commons-collections.jar from liferay-portal.war/WEB-INF/lib to [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/lib (overwrite it if it is already there)
remove hibernate3.jar, jboss-hibernate.jar from [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/lib
Move liferay-portal.war to [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/deploy/
13. open [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/deploy/jbossjca-service.xml
change <attribute name=”Debug”>true</attribute>
to <attribute name=”Debug”>false</attribute>
14. open [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/deploy/jboss-messaging.sar/destinations-service.xml
clear all text between <server></server>
15. open [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/bin/run.conf
modify the JAVA_OPTS setting to this one
JAVA_OPTS="-Xms256m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxNewSize=256m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000"
16. But in my experience, JBoss Ent. may not pick up this setting in windows, so
Windows : open [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/bin/run.bat
find : rem JVM memory allocation pool parameters. Modify as appropriate.
change the line follow this one to
set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -Xms256m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxNewSize=256m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m
17. start Jboss AS, beware that there are more then one AS : All, default, minimal, production.
The one we setup is default, you can start by
Windows : [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/bin/run.bat -c default
Linux : [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/bin/run.sh -c default
18. open http://localhost:8080, you should see liferay running
19. change the Jboss AS to allow remote connection and bind to port 80
open [JBOSS_HOME]/jboss-as/server/default/deploy/jboss-web.deployer/server.xml
change :
<Connector port="8080" address="${jboss.bind.address}"
maxThreads="250" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"
emptySessionPath="true" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"
connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true" />
to :
<Connector port="80" address="0.0.0.0"
maxThreads="250" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"
emptySessionPath="true" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"
connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true" />
Then reboot JBoss AS.
