Using the Portal Manager with another Application Server

During the installation of CMS Fiona, the Trifork Application Server is installed as well. Next to other applications, the supplied GUI and the Portal Manager are running in this application server. Therefore, no other third-party software is required for operating these web applications.

The Portal Manager and the included portlets – however, not the GUI – can also be operated in a different application server, if the following prerequisites are met.

  1. The application server needs to fully support J2EE 1.4.
  2. The application server needs to support the optional feature cross-context dispatching and it must have been activated.
