On Deploying EXT, We face the problem that our changes are not getting reflected.
I seen people in liferay forums continuously asking for the same.
It is not perfect but will work in the case ,if you can't execute the command ant direct-deploy and want to execute ant deploy command.
The following steps you have to follow in order to redeploy the EXT Portlet
My Portlet name is Alert-ext so I am referring with this name in the below steps :-
1) Stop the Server
2) put ext-redeploy-6.0.5.jar in tomcat-6.0.29/Webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/lib/
3) Delete the Alert-ext portlet from the webapps folder if in case you are redeploying
4) Remove ext-Alert-ext-service.jar from the tomcat-6.0.29\lib\ext
5) Remove all the *-ext.xml from the path tomcat-6.0.29\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF except struts-config-ext.xml
6) Remove all the jar file related to ext from the tomcat-6.0.29\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\lib except ext-redeploy-6.0.5.jar
7) Start the Server
8) Deploy the EXT Portlet
9) After that it will ask for rebooting the server once the EXT portlet is successfully deployed.
10) Now once again start the server.
Your EXT portlet will re-deployed successfully and all the changes will get Executed.
Hope it helps !!!
