  LEP-502	Problem with "request.getUserPrincipal()" call under Websphere
  LEP-806	Hot Deploy does not work under Websphere
  LEP-6570	Add "ext-data-source-spring.xml" into portal.properties under spring.configs section
  LEP-4343	Portal.properties should contain a javascript-ext.file
  LEP-2772	Support for WebSphere 6.1.0.7

The portal.properties file located in portal-impl.jar is not loaded because of the following exception:

I guess the problem is that under Websphere the line

URL url = classLoader.getResource(name + ".properties");

#260 in com.liferay.portal.configuration.ConfigurationImpl returns "wsjar" instead of "jar" as the URL protocol.

WebLogic 10 also has the same problem.

Committed to SVN.

Thanks Rich.

In JBoss 6, the protocol is "vfs". So the deployment fails (at least with LR 5.2.3).

Hello Thomas,

This project is no longer used, and has been migrated into the LPS project. For that reason, I'm going to close this ticket. Can you open a ticket in the LPS project which references this one? Then you should get visibility on it.

Thanks!
