Update June 24, 2014: Those instructions also describe how to build SSP from source, which you'll need to do if you're targeting the latest 2.4.x patches ahead of the 2.4.1 GA. If you're deploying the 2.4.0 GA of Platform, but want to target SSP 2.4.1-SNAPSHOT (i.e. the latest 2.4.x), build SSP first, then update the SSP dependency in

E.g on *nix.... $> SSP_CONFIGDIR=/opt/ssp/sspconfig ant -Dmaven.test.skip=true clean <target> Most Common Commands - Re/Initialize the SSP-Platform database, then run the equivalent of deploy-ear. Destructive! Appropriate for first-time deployments. $> SSP_CONFIGDIR=/opt/ssp/sspconfig ant -Dmaven.test.skip=true clean <target> initportal Most Common Commands - Build entire uPortal (incl. all wars),and deploy entire uPortal, ant deploy-ear - Build the full site and database, ant initportal (Warning- this will reset the entire uPortal database) Other deployment optionsSSP-Platform portal, including SSP: $> SSP_CONFIGDIR=/opt/ssp/sspconfig ant -Dmaven.test.skip=true clean deploy-ear Other commonly used ant targets: testdb: Tests the database settings and connectivity initdb: Drop uPortalSSP-Platform tables in the db & recreate them with configured seed data (src/main/data, not including the "quickstart" folder). deploy-war: Build & deploy _just the uPortalSSP-Platform war_ (i.e. not SSP or other portlets, etc.). deployPortletApp: Deploy one (already-built) portlet war file to Tomcat (example ant deploPortletApp -DportletApp=..\/SSP-Open-Source-Project/target/ssp.war) | ||

This command will download the SSP .war file and bundle it into the output of the SSP-Platform build |
