2.0.0 preview on jboss 4.0.5 w/ jboss-portal 2.4.1 - almost

[deas0815]

Hallo everybody,

I'm trying to get 2.0.0 preview running on jboss 4.0.5 w/ jboss portal 2.4.1 using the
alfresco.war bundled with alfresco-community-jboss-2.0.0Preview.

It almost seems working.

The only "real" problem left I've encountered (so far) is that the form(s) is/are missing
some hidden fields so I'm running into javascript errors like the following and cannot
really navigate very far:

Error: document.forms.dashboard['dashboard:act'] has no properties
Source File: http://localhost:8080/portal/portal/default/Alfresco
Line: 1

Error: document.forms.dashboard['dashboard:modelist'] has no properties
Source File: http://localhost:8080/portal/portal/default/Alfresco
Line: 1

Any help how to get this fixed is appreciated.

regards
Andreas

I got the same javascript issue with JEMS Installer 1.2.0.GA set (AS 4.0.5.GA, EJB3 1.0.0.CR9-patch1-jboss4.0.5, Portal 2.4.1.SP1, JBossWS 1.0.3.SP1) + Alfresco 1.4 Community. Navigation within portlet does not work at all because of the error.

Error: document.forms.dashboard['dashboard:modelist'] has no properties
Line: 1

Does this work ok for you if you use the JBoss Portal 2.2 from the JBoss Bundle?

Cheers

Hi Paul,
Your JBoss bundle for Alfresco 1.4 works just fine.
But I have never succeded to run Alfresco v1.4 neigher v2.0 on JBoss 2.4 Portal.

If you ever tested Alfresco 2.0 (or 1.4) against JBoss Portal 2.4 - what build it was?

alfresco-community-jboss-2.0.0Preview.zip works good itself. It's based on JBossPortal 2.2.
Evet though if replace alfresco.war with the 2.0 release version from alfresco-community-war-2.0.0.zip one (adding missed jboss and portal discriptors from alfresco-community-jboss-2.0.0Preview.zip's war) I've failed to run Alfresco portlet within portal. Alfresco Portlet throws exception so got not started in portal at all.

It'd be really helpful if you test Alfresco work within 2.4 JBoss portal. In case of success, information on how to run Alfresco 2.0 in JBoss Portal 2.4 (latest stable release) would be really helpful to all your users. In the moment there is absolutely NO such information on your site, as I can see.

Thank you,
Andrey

FYI I have successfully tweaked Alfresco 2.0 to work with the latest JBossPortal 2.4.1 release. It required a couple of minor code changes which are not present in the current 2.0 release however. I will commit the changes to our SVN HEAD repo probably tommorow and provide instructions on how to deploy (easy enough).

Thanks,

Kevin

Thank you very much, Kevin
for attention you guys put to running Alfresco 2.0 in JBoss Portal 2.4!
This is a really great news.
Wait for the instructions.

Thank you,
Andrey

Yep, just compiled as per instructions.
