I run Jetspeed and Alfresco together where Alfresco is installed as a
standard war instead of a portlet.   I didn't really see any benefit in
running Alfresco as a portlet over the standard war.

Just my 2 cents.

 Hi all,



I'm trying to merge Alfresco with Jetspeed2, but I'm experiencing lot of
trouble since I don't know very well what I should modify and how… =/ I'm
kind of newbie to this things



I've seen that there is a portlet version of Alfresco for Liferay (in
fact, there is a bundle containing Tomcat+Liferay+Alfresco) so I thought I
could modify the xml descriptors in order to run Alfresco over J2. Alfresco
is a jsf portlet so I took a look on jsf demo that comes out-of-the-box with
J2, but I didn't get too much of it…



Differences I've seen:

-          faces-config.xml: beans, navigation rules, etc are splitted up
in different xml files (while "jsf demo" has all these things packed in the
same "faces-config.xml"). The "faces-config.xml" only defines a factory
that I removed (I've asked also this issue in Alfresco's forum and told me
maybe this factory is not necessary… there is also a portlet for JBoss that
does not need any factory)

-          web.xml: there is an additional listener (that I think it's the
main source for my problems)… something called PortletContextListener in
Liferay that I don't what is it for… I've tried to replace it with "Jetspeed
engine" or "PortletFacesContextImpl.class" (from the J2's jsf bridge, and
also include the jsf bridge jar in the war file) but with no luck (see lines
89-92 in "web.xml.txt")

-          web.xml: I've made AlfrescoClient portlet to run against
JetspeedServletContainer since I understood this is the class in J2 that
manages MVC for portlet applications (see lines 106-115 in "web.xml.txt").
Though I have doubts regarding initial parameter of that servlet



I think I've managed to deploy "alfresco.war" (in fact, some directory
structure is created) but J2 "dies" in the process… without leaving any log
message…



I'm keen on J2 (rather than Liferay) so I would like to keep working over
J2…



Any help or suggestion would be very much appreciated… =)



Thanks and regards,

Enrique



PS: sorry for my English

PS2: I attach the xml descriptors
