Javascript fast load does not work in Liferay on WebLogic

I have deployed Liferay 6.2 GA4 portal on WebLogic server 10.3.6.0. If the javascript.fast.load property is enabled, the packed javascript version is not got (downloaded) from /combo url. In web browser console the following errors are displayed:

GET https://www.mywebsite.cz/liferay-portal/combo/?browserId=other&minifierType=&languageId=en_US&b=6203&t=1448975784000&/liferay-portal/html/js/aui/color-base/color-base-min.js&/liferay-portal/html/js/aui/event-touch/event-touch-min.js&/liferay-portal/html/js/liferay/dockbar.js 404 (Not Found)

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'init' of undefined

Due to this for example dockbar doesn't work. From source code it looks like ComboServlet can't get servlet resources found in /combo url parameters. If javascript.fast.load is disabled, portal seems to work.

Weblogic.xml:

Does anybody know what could be the problem? Some WebLogic or Liferay settings? Thanks for any idea or help.

Solution

  • After several days of solving the problem I found the main cause of this problem was this:

    Because the customer didn't want to have portal dependencies (portal-service.jar, portlet-api.jar, ...) as domain libraries, I deployed it as Java EE Shared Libraries. Obviously it works differently than I expected. So after persuasion of customer, I put liferay dependencies to domain lib folder and suddenly everything started to work.
