Playing With uPortal Notes

Just some notes trying to get uPortal and Sakai into the same Tomcat.


Quickstart worked. I got source to run in Tomcat 5.0.28 – make sure to get the HSQL database running.
I could not figure out how to make HSQL start from the stock distro. But I cheated and used
ant hsql
From the quickstart.
Tried to make source work with Tomcat 5.5.9 –
Error creating bean with name ‘portletApplDefIncrementer’ defined in resource [/WEB-INF/persistence_beans.xml] of ServletContext: Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/collections/CursorableLinkedList
I needed to add this file:
common/lib/commons-collections-3.1.jar
Up comes uPortal 3 in Tomcat 5.5.9
Now trying to make it work in the same Tomcat (5.5.9) as Sakai.
Deploy both.
Found commons-collections-3.1.jar in both shared/lib and common/lib – removed the shared/lib version…
Came up with
Error creating bean with name ‘sectionsSessionFactory’ defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/spring-beans.xml]: Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access method org.apache.commons.dbcp.DelegatingConnection.passivate()V from class org.apache.commons.dbcp.SakaiPoolableConnectionFactory
java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access method org.apache.commons.dbcp.DelegatingConnection.passivate()V from class org.apache.commons.dbcp.SakaiPoolableConnectionFactory
uPortal comes up but Sakai does not.
mv commons-collections-3.1.jar commons-dbcp-1.2.1.jar ../../shared/lib/
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name ‘sectionsSessionFactory’ defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/spring-beans.xml]: Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/collections/CursorableLinkedList
uPortal blows up

Sakai blows up.
Start over with a clean Tomcat and deploy Sakai first. Then deploy uPortal. Here is a diff:

Hmmm..
Step 1: Remove some stuff uPortal puts in common and Sakai puts in shared
rm ./common/lib/commons-dbcp-1.2.1.jar
rm ./common/lib/commons-pool-1.2.jar
rm ./common/lib/hsqldb.jar
Viola! Both come up…
