  LPS-11935	Export/Import LAR in Shopping Porlet is broken
  LPS-923	Calendar portlet: LAR file import broken
  LPS-921	Bookmarks Portlet: Importing a LAR function is broken.
  LPS-17622	Exporting LAR throws NoSuchFileException

I think that exporting public pages actually exports the private pages.

1 Login with [e-mail]
2 Have a couple of public pages and private pages for him (I had the social networking portlets on them).
3 Go to my public pages
4 Manage Pages
5 Export (public.lar)
6 Go to my private pages
7 Manage Pages
8 Export (private.lar)

Results: The private.lar are public pages and not private pages.

Hi Robert,
Thank you for your report. I was able to reproduce this issue in Liferay Portal 6.0.12 and our current trunk head. I will update this ticket to reflect this issue.

[Ginson Ren]

On the trunk,after I clicked export,and clicked more options,I can not downroll to the end.

[Ginson Ren]

I think the Lar is not breake,I can export/import the lar successful.But control console display errors.

[Robert Biter]

Indeed, I can not scroll down in the modal window that appears when clicking manage pages for example, but that is another bug (at least on Opera there is this behavior).

[Ginson Ren]

Sorry Robert,my mistake, LPS-18161this issue is about the problem of downroll.

[Ginson Ren]

Hi Robert, thanks for the report. I tried to reproduce this issue but could not. Please ensure you have a fresh environment with no other issues that may interfere with the bug. If I cannot reproduce this issue, it cannot be fixed. Thanks!

[Ginson Ren]

Update resolution as cannot reproduce.

[Robert Biter]

For me, it exported the private pages instead of the public pages. So, when I created the default lars for new users, they only got private pages even if I created the lars from public pages. There is definitely an issue there. If you get an exception in the console, you must check it out.

Hi Robert,I tried to reproduce this issue on 6.1.x revision 85820 and I was unable to reproduce.Please update to our current trunk head and try again.If it still does not work,please show me the steps that you reproduce.

[Ginson Ren]

Reproduce as following steps:
(1)Add new site from control panel;
(2)Add one public page and one private page for the new site;
(3)Export public page as a lar;
(4)Clear database and Browser Cache;
(5)Restart the server;
(6)Go to the control panel and add a new site;
(7)Import public page.

[Robert Biter]

Steps to reproduce (Revision 85838):
1 Login with [e-mail]
2 Have a couple of public pages and private pages for him (I had the social networking portlets on them).
3 Go to my public pages
4 Manage Pages
5 Export (public.lar)
6 Go to my private pages
7 Manage Pages
8 Export (private.lar)

The exported lars contain the same layouts and the same portlets (both private and public) even though they are different. Using this lars as default lars for a new user nets me a user that only has private pages and the pages are actually a copy of the pages I had as public pages when I exported the lar.

If you can't reproduce this please tell me.

Hi Robert,
Thanks for the report.I need more information in order to reproduce this issue. Could you also show me the steps for how to use these lars as default lars for a new user and as you said the exported lars contain the same layouts and the same portlets,how did you distinguish them? Thanks very much!

[Robert Biter]

You add this to portal-ext.properties
default.user.public.layouts.lar=$

{liferay.home}/data/user_public.lar
default.user.private.layouts.lar=${liferay.home}

/data/user_private.lar

You add the lars to the data directory (found next to tomcat and deploy)

To see the contents of the lars, you can change their extension to .zip and browse through them like an archive. When you export them, have 3 public pages with some portlets and 2 private pages with other portlets. You will see it exports the same data.

Hi Robert,
I am able to reproduce the issue. The export lar of public and private pages are the same; both lars are of public pages. I will reopen the ticket and update the issue. Thank you for your patience.

Hi Robert,

As part of the community verifier program I am taking a look at this issue.

I am unable to reproduce this on Liferay 6.1 GA1 per your last comment's steps. Can you verify that this is no longer a bug in 6.1 GA1?

Thanks!
