Setting Up the Portal Database

Next you will need to setup your database correctly:

  1. Copy the <ATG10dir>/Portal/install/minimal-data.xml file to your MyPortal module. Use this command:

    cp $DYNAMO_ROOT/Portal/install/minimal-data.xml $DYNAMO_ROOT/MyPortal

  2. Edit <ATG10dir>/MyPortal/minimal-data.xml. Replace all references to /portal with /myportal. There are ten <add-item> elements in this file that set the value of a servletContext property. The value of each of these should be changed from /portal to /myportal.

  3. Create the ATG Portal database tables. This procedure is described in the Configuring Databases and Database Access chapter of the ATG Installation and Configuration Guide. Follow the directions for creating the correct portal tables. To import the minimal data you just created, use a command like this:

    $DYNAMO_HOME/bin/startSQLRepository.bat -m Portal.paf
    -database oracle -repository /atg/portal/framework/PortalRepository
    -import $DYNAMO_ROOT/MyPortal/minimal-data.xml
