Here is a list of tested versions or reported as working by users, before reporting a problem please make sure that you are using a compatible version.

If you successfully installed JBoss portal on versions not listed here please let us know so we can add it here.

1.1. JBoss application server

Note

Currently we recommend ONLY using JBoss AS 4.0.2, or greater. Previous versions of JBoss Application Server are not supported, as JBoss Portal is configured to work with Hibernate3.

1.2. Database

Note

JBoss Portal employs Hibernate as an interface to RDBMS. Any DB supported by Hibernate will work with JBoss Portal.

MySQL is the database used for our testings, 4.0.22 is one version that has been fully tested.

  • MySQL 4.0 (4.0.22 is known to be supported along with the connector 3.0.16)
  • MySQL 4.1 (4.1.7 is known to be supported along with the connector 3.0.16)
  • MySQL 4.1 (4.1.8 is known to be supported along with the connector 3.1)
  • PostgreSQL (reported to work)
  • HypersonicSQL (works)
  • Oracle (reported to work)
  • MSSQL (not tested)

1.3. Source building
