How to convert uPortal-2-5-1-quick-start to DLM

The instructions for making this conversion are also in the DLM Administration Guide: http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/UPC/DLM+Administration+Guide.  Note that in the quick start there are two ant build.xml files - one at the top level and the other in the uPortal_rel-2-5-1 directory.

Step 1.

In the quick start directory tree go to the properties directory and edit portal.properties settings as follows:

org.jasig.portal.layout.UserLayoutStoreFactory.implementation=org.jasig.portal.layout.dlm.RDBMDistributedLayoutStore
org.jasig.portal.layout.UserLayoutManagerFactory.coreImplementation=org.jasig.portal.layout.dlm.DistributedLayoutManager 

After changing this value go to the uPortal_rel-2-5-1 directory and redeploy using, "ant deploy".

Step 2.

Modify user accounts in the database. Specifically, the UP_USER_PROFILE table contains a lookup of the structure and theme stylesheets that should be used by users.

Start HSQLDB by  using "ant hsql" from the top directory of the quick start.  Next, in the demo directory under HSQLDB_1-7-2-11 start the hsql manager with the command runManager (bat or .sh file).  Under File>Connect choose

Type:

HSQL Database Engine Server

Driver:

org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver

Url:

jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost:8887

User:

sa

Execute the SQL:

UPDATE up_user_profile SET structure_ss_id=4, theme_ss_id=3
WHERE theme_ss_id=11;

commit;

Step 3.

Start Tomcat using ant tomcatstart from the top level quick start directory.  You should now see the Guest page with the DLM "Welcome" channel on the first tab.
