After migrating to the 5.2.2 and from JBoss to tomcat (see my migration entry ) I noticed, that I could not deploy portlets anymore.
(Why did I not fix that earlier? In the beginning I used the workaround to copy the full unzipped folders to the server and restarted the server :) )
So as we started a big "Theme" project today (Note: Watch out for upcoming blog entries about themes! :) ) that problem got annoying.
The result I always got was:
... was copied successfully. Deployment will start in a few seconds.What I finally found out:
The new control panel is great. Really! Also good to install plugins. (Control Panel->Server->Plugin Installation)
What I did forget though: I still had the good old "Plugin Installer" portlet up and running - from the good old JBoss days.
And there it was. The setting:
Plugin Installer -> Configurations -> Destination Directory
still contained old JBoss setting. (Of course - they were still in the DB).
Removing that column solved my problem - deploying works perfectly now.
Cheers!
