  • There are also two workarounds to fix this issue:
    • The first one is to run the following Groovy script in Server Administration after startup:
      import com.liferay.portal.kernel.service.CompanyLocalServiceUtil;
      import com.liferay.portal.kernel.service.PortletLocalServiceUtil;
      CompanyLocalServiceUtil.forEachCompanyId {
      companyId -> PortletLocalServiceUtil.checkPortlets(companyId) };
    • The second one is setting module.framework.properties.dependency.manager.thread.pool.enabled=false in the portal-ext.properties.
