Hi Illés Ákos,

Also, Please enable the log to get if there is any exception.

RE: Deploying Site Initializer makes Objects vanish

Hi Sarah, in these cases the problem is usually resolved by running a re-index on the Search indexes via Control Panel -> Search -> Index Actions -> Reindex. Hope this helps!

RE: Bug: PATCH /v1.0/warehouseItems/{id}: reservedQuantity ignored

2025-09-01T00:44:37Z

Related bug: Quantity (and reserved quantity) in RESTful API does not support decimal values.

Go to the "Commerce"-admin and create an entry under "Inventory" having a quantity of 5.255 and a reserved quantity of 1.128. Then go to https://HOST/liferay/o/api?endpoint=https://dragonkingchocolate.com:1443/liferay/o/headless-commerce-admin-inventory/v1.0/openapi.json and perform GET
/v1.0/warehouses/{id}/warehouseItems -- the decimal values are gone.

The same btw. when you edit the previously stored inventory-item in "Commerce" > "Inventory" again: I saved quantity = 5.255 and reserved quantity = 1.128, but when editing it again, it shows only 5 and 1 (instead of 5.255 and 1.128). This sucks. I want to track many items in kg, but often have 0.5 kg or 0.25 kg going in or out of the inventory. I don't want to track it in g, because we have over 1000 kg in stock. In the DB it is clearly a BigDecimal, but Liferay sometimes rounds/truncates the values.

Deploying Site Initializer makes Objects vanish

2025-09-01T00:39:25Z

I have created a site-initializer with client-extensions, but when I deploy it in Liferay Portal 7.4-ga132, all the default objects in Liferay vanish, although I can locate them in the database.

Preserve "Documents and Media" folder context when selecting images

2025-09-01T00:35:09Z

When selecting an image from a fragment editable image field,
e.g.: <img src="placeholder.jpg" alt="Placeholder" data-lfr-editable-id="img1" data-lfr-editable-type="image" >

we are taken to the root of "Documents and Media".

If we’ve created a folder hierarchy and, on a content page, we need to display all the images contained in the last folder of the hierarchy, then for each image, we have to browse through the entire folder structure again, which becomes tedious when dealing with a large number of images.

Would it be possible, when working on the same page and an image has already been selected from Documents and Media, to reopen the Documents and Media window and be positioned at the folder location of the previously selected image (either by default or by enabling an option)?

Adding Web Content Articles fails if user Time Zone is set to Australia, NZ

2025-09-02T15:34:05Z

From what I understand, this is where bugs are lodged?

I have what seems like quite a major bug to do with Time Zones (Australia and New Zealand tested) and adding new Web Content Articles.

Steps to reproduce:

Start a new docker container for Liferay Portal 7.4 GA 132 (I use podman instead as below)
podman run --rm -m 8g -p 8080:8080 portal:7.4.3.132-ga132

Save as Draft (or publish), a Save as Draft with Permissions Dialog pops up.
Everything works

Go to the logged in user's Account Settings -> Preferences -> Display Settings and choose Time Zone "New Zealand Standard Time" or "Australian Central Time" (only two tested) and Save

Repeat the above steps to create a Web Content Article
Now it does not work. The Cancel button shows, the Save as ... with Permissions Dialog never shows up. The user can't save any Web Content Articles.

In the browser Console you have the following errors:

Hide theme header & sidebar on 404 pages for anonymous users

2025-09-02T15:33:43Z

I want the site header and sidebar (which are part of the liferay theme) to be hidden only when an anonymous user hits a 404 (page not found).

Bug: PATCH /v1.0/warehouseItems/{id}: reservedQuantity ignored

2025-08-25T16:45:11Z

Hello *,

here's how to reproduce the bug:

1. Go to your liferay-instance and log in.

2. Open the "Liferay Commerce Admin Inventory API", i.e. https://HOST/liferay/o/api?endpoint=https://HOST/liferay/o/headless-commerce-admin-inventory/v1.0/openapi.json

3. Get a valid warehouse-item, e.g. by first querying your warehouses and then the items of one of these warehouses. For my example, I have this warehouse-item:

{
    "externalReferenceCode": "52435fdc-f94a-ec13-765e-3933eb3630c0",
    "id": 40958,
    "quantity": 94,
    "reservedQuantity": 10,
    "sku": "CABUT310",
    "unitOfMeasureKey": "",
    "warehouseExternalReferenceCode": "e1409d48-3439-89f6-31ee-89ca317d85c7",
    "warehouseId": 34549
}

4. Copy+paste this JSON into the request-body of "PATCH /v1.0/warehouseItems/{id}" and then change the quantity as well as the reservedQuantity, e.g. like this:

{
    "externalReferenceCode": "52435fdc-f94a-ec13-765e-3933eb3630c0",
    "id": 40958,
    "quantity": 92,
    "reservedQuantity": 12,
    "sku": "CABUT310",
    "unitOfMeasureKey": "",
    "warehouseExternalReferenceCode": "e1409d48-3439-89f6-31ee-89ca317d85c7",
    "warehouseId": 34549
}

Here, I changed the quantity from 94 to 92 and the reservedQuantity from 10 to 12.

5. Click "Execute". You should receive a success (HTTP 200).

6. Query the warehouse-item again. FAIL: The quantity was updated correctly, but the reservedQuantity was not updated!

Just for the record: I also tried to update only the reservedQuantity (leaving everything else unchanged) and I also tried reducing the JSON to only what I wanted to update and it all didn't work.

Please fix this bug as soon as possible. It seems it's currently not possible at all to change the reservedQuantity via RESTful API.

In case you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask here or contact me via e-mail.

Best regards, Marco :-)

Liferay DXP 7.4 on EKS and IAM roles for AWs RDS PostgreSQL connectivity

2025-08-21T14:33:31Z

Hello All,

I am not a Liferay expert but from infosec with focus on Identity and Access Management.

Our liferay team is migrating the on-prem Liferay instance to run on EKS using AWS RDS Postgres. Our guidance is to use IAM roles for authentication. Upon reading blog posts, i see that the AWS advanced JDBC wrapper can be leveraged by Liferay Pod in EKS to connect to the backend RDs PostgreSQL in AWS using IAM roles. I am sure many others would have attempted this too. Are there any blog posts or samples that i can refer to for learning more on this and guide our liferay team?

RE: RE: Issue with the current default User-Agent used by lifreray portal

2025-08-21T14:32:26Z

I just use the RSS Widget in a page and there the issue came up, no custom code - thats why i created this "bug report" as this might become a problem in the future when maybe more RSS publishers block this default user agent.

I was just curios and searched the source code for the user agent definition to provide helpful information.

Sorry for the confusion!

RE: RE: Issue with the current default User-Agent used by lifreray portal

2025-08-19T16:38:21Z

I didn't know if you were calling the HttpImpl using custom code (where you would have been able to set the user agent) or leveraging an OOTB Liferay widget. Glad you got it resolved though!

RE: Issue with the current default User-Agent used by lifreray portal

2025-08-19T16:00:40Z

Sorry, i didnt know about or find any place to set the an user-agent myself - where can i do this?

My issue was solved by the rss feed source - they unblocked the user agent for me.

RE: Issue with the current default User-Agent used by lifreray portal

It only sets the default if you haven't set a user agent yourself.

You didn't provide any other context, but is this a possibility?

Issue with the current default User-Agent used by lifreray portal

2025-08-18T13:41:29Z

Hello,

i ran into an issue as the current default user agent "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Trident/7.0; rv 11.0) like Gecko" defined in com.liferay.portal.http.internal.HttpImpl is blocked for fetching RSS feed at one of my sources.

A quick research showed, that this user agent represents Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 8.1, using the user agent sting "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:141.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/141.0" works fine.

Maybe the default user agent should be updated to an actual user agent.

Best regards, Timo

RE: Object Data import Issue

As far as I understand you exported and imported the Object Definition?

You can't export & import object entries this way.
But you could use Batch APIs
