Thanks Paul for updating the doc, I couldn't figure out why just some times I
was having the context root conflict.
A limitation of the data source creation wizard is that you cannot specify some
of the values, more specifically all those that make the moduleId. Liferay
plugin is specifically looking for a connection pool named *LiferayPool* and
with the following moduleId *liferay/liferay-pool/4.2.1/car*. If you use the
console you'll get something like console.dbpool/LiferayPool/1.0/rar and
installing the portal server plugin will fail.
I think there is already a JIRA for improving the "flexibility" of
thedatasource creation wizard to allow entering specific moduleId's. In fact, not too
long ago we had a discussion on dev@ about these values, I'll try to find it.
Cheers!

Great article Hernan! I tweaked the part about uninstalling the
welcome application. Also, I'm not sure if you might have already
considered this but the mysql datasource could be created using the
database wizard, and a mysql driver can be automatically downloaded from
there as well. (Maybe you tried that but it wasn't as straight-forward
as I imagine :-)
Best wishes,
Paul

Hi all,
I put together a doc for configuring a portal server (a.k.a. Liferay)
on Geronimo. I saw a couple of times users asking how to deploy
portlets in Geronimo, hopefully this doc will help to address some of
those questions.
Here is the link:

As usual, comments welcome!
Cheers!
