I think that it used to the be the case that in Liferay 4, if a war contained both a portlet and a servlet, the servlet was initialized before the portlet. Now with Liferay 5 I notice that the opposite is going on. How can I setup my web application, or Liferay to always have the servlets initialized before the portlets? ...

Is there an alternate method to achieve the desired eff...
Has anyone tried to use Awstats for generating usage statistics for a Liferay portal? Can you share your experience on how to do it?

Hi guys, if you're familiar with Liferay you'll know that when you make an itsy-bitsy change to a css file you shall rebuild the theme and redeploy it.

I hope I'll be able to explain this properly. I'm developing a portlet for Liferay by using Spring. It's a pinboard system. So I have a view (Jsp) which shows the detail of a certain pinboard entry, given its id. Furthermore there is a link which goes to an AddCommentController for adding a new comment to the pinboard entry the user is c...
