Creating and configuring the Liferay Home directory for WebLogic

For the WebLogic installation, the default location of the Liferay Home directory is <WebLogicInstallDirectory>/user_projects/domains, where <WebLogicInstallDirectory> is the directory where you installed WebLogic. You can, if needed, use a different directory as the Liferay Home directory.

1. Create the directory you want to be Liferay Home directory.
2. Next, you need to update the version of portal-ext.properties located in the web-inf/classes directory of the endeca-portal-2.4.x.war file, which is located in the .ear file, which is contained in the .zip file.

   This version of portal-ext.properties is only used to provide a pointer to the Liferay Home directory.

3. Add the liferay.home parameter to the top of the file.

   For example:

   liferay.home=/localdisk/liferay

4. Repackage the file into the .war file.
