RE: how does work Liferay folder structure?
I want to know how each Liferay Folder Structure works, please
explain
It's pretty simple really...
- data Is for internal node data, and it is the default location for the D&M storage.
- deploy is the folder Liferay watches to automate deployments.
- elasticsearch-sidecar is an Elasticsearch directory used for embedded Sidecar. This should only be used in non-production environments.
- license is the license folder for Liferay.
- logs is where Liferay is by default configured to write application logs.
- osgi is where Liferay's OSGi container works from, so the configs are there, the Liferay OSGi modules, custom OSGi modules and wars, also the state folder for OSGi container runtime metadata.
- tomcat is the tomcat app server folder.
- tools is where you find the patching tool and the db upgrade tool.
- work is used by the JSP compiler to hold the intermediate and class files from JSPs.
I would like to know the details of how the portal-ext.properties, inside the data directory (document_library,elasticsearch7,hypersonic) work.
