How to install Liferay on Tomcat

Erqi old Spring

Open source J2EE Portal product Liferay Portal (http://www.liferay.com) released version 3.0. From this release, Liferay is divided into two separate products: LifeRay Enterprise Edition and Liferay Professional. Among them, the professional version completely uses a lightweight architecture based on the Spring framework (http://www.springframework.org), using AOP-based infrastructure implementation, so you can completely detach the high-end J2EE application server, run in the form of web applications. Servlet containers (such as Tomcat). From the perspective of technology, this is enough to prove that the Lightweight architecture based on the IOC container and AOP can fully replace EJB to provide enterprise intensity products.

This article mainly describes how to install Liferay on the Tomcat server of the Windows operating system.
