こんにちは! 日本ライフレイでマーケティングを担当しています、梅野と申します。日本におけるLiferayの認知度向上および日本のLiferayファンを一人でも多く増やしたいと思い、本日から日本語ブログを開始します。 海外のブログ記事をベースにした記事が多くなると思いますが、少しでも皆様の役に立つ情報などをお届けできればと思っています。 更新はなるべく頻繁に…。と思っておりますが、最初は不定期になります。ご愛読いただければ幸いです。どうぞよろしくお願いします! ということで、まずは1つ目の記事（緊張します!）。...

Content is at the heart of every system in this cutting-edge digital world and no doubt, every individual in this fraternity has to deal with it on a day-to-day basis. Classification of this content like static, dynamic, structured, unstructured- defines system boundaries many-a-times and plays a vital role in providing top-notch digital experience to the end user.  However,...

(This blog entry in only available in Hungarian).   Április elsején lett 6 éves a Liferay magyar irodája. Alapítótagként visszaemlékezve ennek nagyon hosszú időnek kellene érződnie, de valahogyan nem az. Még mindig emlékszem arra a percre amikor megkaptuk az első ticketet és elkezdtünk dolgozni mint egy csapat. Azóta nagyon sok...

Today I’d like to let you know that Liferay Portal 7 Community does not have "out of the box" support for clustering, non-open source app servers (Oracle WebLogic, IBM WebSphere), and non-open source databases (Oracle Database, Microsoft SQL Server, IBM DB2, Sybase DB). Support for these non-open source systems will be found in Liferay's current and future commercial releases, which...

In a blog post from September 2015 titled New Git Repositories for Liferay Faces I mentioned that there would be a new version scheme corresponding to these new repositories. I'm pleased to announce that Cody Hoag from the Liferay Documentation Team has published an update to the official Liferay documentation titled "Understanding the Liferay Faces Version Scheme" with...

In this  post I want to share liferay DB configuration using JNDI instead of portal-ext.properties. For JDBC connection we use portal-ext.properties. If your custom service builder portlet is pointing to another database then we can use JNDI to configure that database. So now here I am doing this using JNDI configuration. Follow below steps: ...

There is nothing worse than starting your day and being confronted with an error like this: com.liferay.portlet.dynamicdatamapping.StorageException: com.liferay.portal.NoSuchUserException: No User exists with the primary key 0 I certainly *DO* exist, Liferay, and do not appreciate being assigned the number 0.  I received this error while trying to add a DDL...

To fix this you can run Developer Studio with the -clean option. Here is a short list of steps to getting egit working: 1. Install egit/JGit by adding this software site:  egit -...

The Liferay community can now enjoy the full benefits of Java 8 and all the libraries and tools that have moved to Java 8. You will also of course be able to make contributions to Liferay Portal using Java 8 in the near...

A little while ago I ran into a strange problem at a customer. We had written a hook that contained a small REST service that accepts a multipart POST to import a document and some related metadata/permissions. This service seemed to work OK and was used to import 1000's of documents, but every now and then we received a call or an email of an enduser complaining that they...

The Sync team is pleased to announce SSO support in the latest releases of Liferay Sync desktop and mobile clients. Any SSO implementation that works against Liferay Portal will work with Liferay Sync as well (SiteMinder, OpenSSO, OAM, SAML, Shibboleth, etc). Please note this feature is for Portal EE customers only. Below are some screenshots showing the login flow using Liferay's...

After building a hook that wraps the FakeSMTP application and a portlet that gives you file management capabilities in Liferay we now get to part 3 of the series: the CRaSH portlet. I must admit: I did actually build this portlet first, but during its development needed something to show/inspect emails and to upload, download and edit files and ended building the other...

(This blog entry in only available in Hungarian).   A Liferay életében az egyik fontos érték a “stay nerdy” kifejezés. Ezt elég nehéz magyarra fordítani, a két héttel ezelőtt az irodában zajló videóforgatás során is felmerült többekben a kérdés, hogy ez mit is jelent. Ha mindenképp megpróbálnánk lefordítani, talán  a “maradj kocka” kifejezés...

What is AWS Marketplace? AWS Marketplace is an online store where you can sell or buy software that runs on Amazon Web Services. These are pre-configured system images, which can be executed by customers on their selected server configuration with just a few clicks. Putting your product there will allow your customers to use it without going through the trouble of installation...

Through Liferay's JSON-WS interface it is possible to automate tasks that might otherwise take lots of time through Liferay portal's GUI interface.  For example for my work I often need to create a set of DDL record sets. By using the method "/ddlrecordset/add-record-set" it is possible to create these through JSON-WS from either a website or any other JSON client. ...

  Today I'm welcoming a repeat guest, Jorge Ferrer, Liferay's VP of Engineering. I've had the great opportunity to ask him a lot of questions that provide deep insight into what's running behind the scenes in the engineering team. We didn't have enough time, so this is part 1 of our conversation, to be continued in episode 58. I need to squeeze in the (already recorded) episode...

  Another Liferay contest is on the way! This one, however, is a bit different than others you may have participated in previously. To celebrate the upcoming release of Liferay 7, we are holding a community Javadoc contest. It's simple; you write Javadoc for parts of Liferay you have expert knowledge on, and you accumulate points based on the amount of...
