Deploy uPortal

1. Installed Install Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.0.0
2. Copied Copy JAXP 1.3, Xalan 2.6.0 and Xerces 2.6.2 JARs to lib/endorsed of OC4J JRE (/OC4J-10.1.2/jdk/jre/lib/endorsed), you'll need to create the directory.
3. Copied Copy JAXP 1.3, Xalan 2.6.0 and Xerces 2.6.2 JARs to applib of OC4J (/OC4J-10.1.2/j2ee/home/applib).
4. Updated /OC4J-10.1.2/j2ee/home/config/application.xml by adding lines.
   <library path="../applib/dom.jar"/>
