Hi Arnaud
I just added the plugin console stuff to the tomcat server and a mysql
db plugin. Last time I tested It worked fine to switch database and
running from mysql but things may be in a flux as I am currently
rearranging things.
As you are building from source you should be able to install the mysql
db plugin from your local repository.
From here on you should be able to add what else geronimo plugins you
have in your repos :).
The docs are not yet updated with instructions for the db switching.

I am using the geronimo-tomcat-liferay and it is working fine so thanks again
Peter. However I cannot deploy any new war I guess because it is a
minimalistic server version... How do I install new geronimo plugins ?
I tried to make it through Geronimo console webpage but there is also no "
Applications > Plugins" link.
Arnaud.

Hi
If you want a sneak peak (before i wrap things up) you can
svn co http://www.m4u.nu/svn/geronimo-liferay-repos/geronimo-liferay/trunk
but remember this is still a moving target so there are no guarantees it
will work at the time you decide to check it out ;) although right now
(2008-06-25) it is in good shape.
As always, any suggestions, opinions, tips or help to pull this together
in the best way possible are appreciated.
(For instance it would be cool to also get jetty running.)

Hi
With the help of David J custom server assemblies document (
http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxDOC21/custom-server-assemblies.html ) and
my experience working with David on the roller plugin I have manage to
put together a Liferay ( http://www.liferay.com ) plugin. For now the
plugin is with liferay 5.0.1 rc1 on G 2.1.1 and consists of the
following maven artifacts
* geronimo-jetty-liferay -- A minimalistic server assembly with the
geronimo kernel the lifray jetty plugin and the geronimo console plugin.
* liferay-jetty -- The liferay jetty plugin built on the lesslibs
liferay-portal war pulling in dependencys like lifray -kernel,
-service and -portlet.
* geronimo-tomcat-liferay -- A minimalistic server as above but with
the liferay tomcat plugin.
* liferay-tomcat -- The liferay tomcat plugin as liferay-jetty above
but with tomcat.
* liferay-derby -- The liferay derby db backend plugin.
* lifray-portal -- The liferay portal war fetched from liferay and
pulled in to a local maven repos.
* liferay-portal-lesslibs -- A overlay of the liferay portal war with
filtered lib jars making use of some geronimo builtins instead.
The geronimo-tomcat-liferay server seems to work fine but the jetty
equivalent has a issue in the login page. When I have ironed out the
jetty issue, cleaned up the code, made some additional improvements
and put together a simple readme with build instructions ;) I am
thinking of wrapping it up and first of all contribute it to the
liferay community ( as suggested by david in
http://marc.info/?l=geronimo-user&m=121304343919559&w=2 ) to see if
they are interested in it for there geronimo integration.
Anny suggestions, opinions, tips or help to pull this together in the
best way possible are appreciated.
