Job Scheduling in Liferay 6

Following are the steps to schedule the job in Liferay 6.

1. Implement a class that will implement MessageListener Interface.



2. Then we need to tell liferay to run this job. So you add the following to your liferay-portlet.xml:


3. We need an actual portlet to attach this "scheduler-entry" to. So we also need the portlet.xml as usual.

Its Done!!!

    Hello Davendra,

    Make sure you are adhering to liferay-portlet.xml dtd rules and you are using Liferay 6 as Scheduling implementation has been changed a lot from liferay 5.2 to Liferay 6.

    Here you can find the liferay-portlet.xml dtd for Liferay 6

    I came across the same problem as stated above by Devendra.
    Also tried copy & paste code from this blog but no luck.
    I'm using Liferay 6.0.6 CE and following is my liferay-portlet.xml
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------







    SamplePortlet
    true
    false



    test
    com.sample.scheduler.MailScheduler


    1
    minute
