Issue with Liferay 5.0.0 on JBoss 4.2.1

[Jan Van Haaren, modifié il y a 14 années.]

Hi guys

I manually deployed the liferay-portal-5.0.0.war file on a clean JBoss 4.2.1 installation. The startup of JBoss went as expected and Liferay was deployed too without any problem. However, when I try to access my Liferay installation through my browser the following error appears in the server.log file and the screen remains blank.

2009-08-26 11:33:02,265 INFO  [STDOUT] 11:33:02,265 ERROR [[jsp]:719] Servlet.service() for servlet jsp threw exception
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP: 

An error occurred at line: 114 in the jsp file: /html/common/themes/top_js.jspf

116: 
117: 			<script src="<%= themeDisplay.getPathJavaScript() %>/<%= javaScriptFile %>?bn=<%= ReleaseInfo.getBuildNumber() %>" type="text/javascript"></script>

I'm using Windows XP and Java 1.6.0_11.

Thanks in advance!

I have already found a solution for this issue myself. You should add the code underneath to the web.xml file in \jboss-4.2.1.GA\server\default\deploy\jboss-web.deployer\conf\. The code should be included within the <servlet>-tag that has "jsp" within its <servlet-name>-tag.

		<init-param>
			<param-name>compilerSourceVM</param-name>
			<param-value>1.5</param-value>
		</init-param>
		<init-param>
			<param-name>compilerTargetVM</param-name>
			<param-value>1.5</param-value>
		</init-param>

Cheers.
