Description
Liferay has a customer that has a requirement to deploy Liferay in a Tomcat servlet context other than root. So as part of the training for this customer, I wrote this wiki article:
http://wiki.liferay.com/index.php/Liferay_FAQ#How_do_I_deploy_Liferay_to_a_context_different_than_ROOT_.28starting_with_Tomcat_5.5_standalone.29
During the training, we discovered that Liferay's sample-icefaces-sun-portlet did not work when the portal was deployed in a context named "liferay-portal". When I tried it with the portal in the ROOT context however, it worked fine.
The modal "User Session Expired" window pops up all the time. The porlet is completely unusable.
