Hi I wouldn't care about this NPE from Feeds, I also have it ;-). The most important issue visible in your log is lack or wrongly configured datasource. --- MBEANS THAT ARE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM --- | ObjectName: jboss.jca:name=LabsDS,service=ManagedConnectionFactory | State: NOTYETINSTALLED | Depends On Me: | persistence.units:jar=polls-commons.jar,unitName=polls | persistence.units:jar=forge-common-1.0.ejb3.jar,unitName=property_persistance | persistence.units:jar=shotoku-feeds.ejb3.jar,unitName=feeds | persistence.units:jar=shotoku-tags.ejb3.jar,unitName=tags Look into sources and in directory configuration/to-copy/server/all/deploy you should find JBLab-ds.xml.sample, portal-mysql-ds.xml.sample and portal-login-ds.xml.sample. Fill those files with proper information about your database and copy to files without "sample" extension.
