大家好！我是将liferay_portal_ext工程转为web project，将其中的portal相关的jar包去掉引用portal源码。在利用MyEclipse启动tomcat过程中报错，debug后找到报错位置，但由于初次学习portal，并不知它要去加载的配置文件什么，哎！已经困扰了很久，望大家帮忙看看！切去开头部分log：

终于解决了！谢谢关注

利用ant deploy会好一点，我都是这么做的

谢谢！现在这个问题已经解决，问题的原因是dom4j解析portlet那几个xml不能解析DOCTYPE所致，去掉就ok了。已经成功搭建了portal web project！

楼主能发个帖说下步骤么，我上次也弄了很久没有成功。

楼主，我也要做和你同样的工作，希望能得到你的帮助，麻烦加一下我qq273361737
