> Portal extensions are not working very well right now with GateIn with regards to how the extensions are deployed or redeployed.
> Starting the Server without the Extension:
> -If you start the server from a clean state (ie the server has not run before) without gatein-sample-extension.ear, then when accessing the portal it will just be text (no images, no css, ...)
> -If you try and deploy the extension while the server is running, then it will fail with a bunch of errors about the portal already being intialized
> -if you stop the server and restart it again, then the portal will render properly but the extra pages the extensions was suppose to create will be missing
> -in order to get the pages the extension was suppose to add, you will need to delete the data directory and restart the server. You will also need to do this if you want to modify what the extension adds.
