Alfresco 3.2 and JBoss Portal 2.7.1

[viniciuscarvalh]

Hello there!

Some time ago, I've downloaded alfresco in a war package (I guess was 2.0) and it worked inside jboss portal. Now I've just downloaded 3.2, and it seems to be a full fledge server, with an embedded tomcat.

We are evaluating a full portal solution that must have a CMS, and since JBoss portal lacks basic functionality we decided to try jboss portal (we need portlet support, jsf-bridge) and also alfresco.

I could not find a good tutorial on how to integrate both. Is it still possible?

Hi,

It depends on what level of integration you need. If you want to replace JBoss Portal's CMS with Alfresco it's no easy feat. But if you just want to do something like exposing Web scripts in portlets you could use Alfresco's out-of-the-box Web script portlet or Rivet Logic's AWPr.

You might have also heard of the work being done by eXo to integrate their portal features into JBoss Portal (http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/JBossPortal-eXoPortalFAQ).

Hope this helps,

Does the jboss build actually work? I notice that the jboss sections in build.xml and projects.xml are rem'd out.

I was trying to build and deploy to jboss, but there's an issue in the projects.xml on line 1970 there is a depends attribute that just says "-tomcat" so I am guessing that is wrong, but I've got no clue what it should say.
