Hi
Great blog and very nicely described steps to install liferay. I did installation 1 properly adn even tested where ever it is mentioned in the blog. But for some reason the Jikes -version test is not working. I did the exact steps you mentioned, what do you think is wrong?
Also can you give a link to download ANT?
Thanks this has been a great help!

what error u got?
where u download the jikes?. make sure that u have installed jikes properly. if so, pls let me know..I will try to rectify..
Thanks for visiting my blog...
Hi
I found your step by step explanation for the setup wonderfull. Yours is the best upto now. but when I test jikes, it does not know it. The configuration is correct,however when I test using jikes -version from another directory, it doesn't work. But when u run it from its bin directory it works.
My second point is when EXT builds up I can not see some important folders like exe/exe-ejb.
Any way u put it in a user friendly way
God Bless You

ext-ear,ext-ejp are older version of Liferay. Hope before LR.4.2.
so you have to download newer version liferay.
They have changed "ext-ear" to "ext-service" and "ext-ejb" to "ext-impl".
Hope this helps
It was certainly interesting for me to read that blog. Thanx for it. I like such themes and everything connected to this matter. I would like to read more on that blog soon.
Great post you got here. It would be great to read a bit more about this matter.
BTW check the design I've made myself Overnight escort
BTW, buy GSM jammer to disable all spy devices in your room or office.
