Changing the context of the portal

[11年前 に Gowtham Mani によって更新されました。]

Hi,

How to change the context root of the portal from / to a custom one say /domain/site

I tried using the portal.ctx property, but getting an indefinite loop when i try to load the page in the browser.

using liferay 6.1 bundeled with tomcat package.

Thanks
Gowtham

Try opening it in the other browser, it should work

or clearing the web browser cache. :-)

Clearing the cache didn't work-out and the other browser option also

Have you deleted the temp directory under liferay-portal-6.1.0-ce-ga1\tomcat-7.0.23

Hi Hitoshi,

That is one of the first thing i did

You could rename the ROOT webapp

[11年前 に Gowtham Mani によって更新されました。]

yes Corne, i have tried re-naming the root webapp but for the double context like /domain/site i dont know how to proceed with that

Ha Gowtham,

My message was not complete, battery died, but somehow commited this reply
It is simply not possible in Tomcat to have a subdirectory in the context path only when using docpath and such;
Context

So you succeeded in a single context path right!?
Wiki

I know what you try to reach and i think that is impossible without some strange Tomcat hack like

  <context path="/portal/smth" docBase="webapps/portal" />  

For others you could always change these too

    layout.friendly.url.private.group.servlet.mapping=/group
    layout.friendly.url.private.user.servlet.mapping=/user
    layout.friendly.url.public.servlet.mapping=/web

mmm to no avail either.

WARNING: A docBase C:\LIFERAY_DEV\servers\liferay-portal-6.1.10-ee-ga1\tomcat-7.0.25\webapps\webapps\ROOT inside the host appBase has been specified, and will b
e ignored

But i found your solution
one should use a # for seperation
Rename ROOT to portal#test
rename root.xml ${Catalina-home}/conf/Catalina/localhost/portal#test.xml
change in context file
<Context path="/portal#test" crossContext="true" >

and of course add this to the properties
portal.ctx=/portal/test

Sorry for delayed response.
I tried the same steps but instead of renaming the folder to domain#site i created a sub directory named site

Thanks for the info.

Gowtham, Try this. Shutdown the server. Try opening this in browser, it should say not found/responding etc. Restart the browser, restart Liferay Server.
I guess you might have already tried changing the portal.ctx property and renaming the root folder.

Ravi,

the one which is confusing me is how to rename the folder structure for the /domain/site context.

if its the case for /domain it would be just renaming the folder and the ROOT.xml file, but not sure what to do for the /domain/site

[11年前 に Ravi Kumar Gupta によって更新されました。]

hmm.. tried several things nothing worked.. but there is one thing that can help. Using mod_proxy/http with apache on front to server portal as /domain/site

[11年前 に Gowtham Mani によって更新されました。]

ya with apache i can make this work, but wanted to know how to work with /domain/site context instead simple context as /domain

I am not sure Gowtham, whether that is possible. Hitoshi, any word about this kind of context path?
