Yeah, I'll be happy to put the plugin up. Should I just get the one at http://mcmahanfamily.org/repository/geronimo-1.1/ to put up there?

Sorry I've left this thread sitting idle for the last few days. I'm just now recovering from a complete system overhaul after my OS crashed *wince*. Thanks Brian for being so flexible. In the long run I agree with Jeff that it would be ideal if the plugin was hosted at liferay.com. That way Liferay can update it when necessary, track downloads, etc. I would be happy to work with someone to set up a plugin repository at the Liferay site and then get that repository added to the master list so it will automatically appear in the admin console, just let me know if/when the time is right. In the meantime I really hope that the Geronimo community will start trying out the Liferay plugin and provide feedback. Aaron would you like to upload the plugin to your repository so it can automatically appear in the admin console? I have also made the plugin available in a private repository I use for development/testing. You can add that repository to your admin console by shutting down your server, editing config.xml, and setting this attribute inside the DownloadedPluginRepos gbean: <attribute name="userRepositories">[http://mcmahanfamily.org/repository/geronimo-1.1/]</attribute> Then start your Geronimo server, log into the admin console, and then click the "Search for Plugins" button in the Plugin portlet. Select the liferay/liferay-portal/4.0.0/car plugin and follow the prompts from there. You may notice a few glitches in the progress bar UI while the plugin is uploading. I attached a fix for that to GERONIMO-1959. If you have any questions then please don't hesitate to send me a note or catch me on irc. thanks, Paul On 7/21/06, Brian Chan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hey everyone, > > Great job!
