Issue

  • I would like to disable the Document Library File Rank Service
  • In Liferay Portal 6.2 and DXP 7.0, there used to be a property which is now removed:
dl.file.rank.enabled=false

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.1
  • Liferay DXP 7.2

Resolution

  • As of DXP 7.1, the Document Library File Rank Service has been moved to a module.
  • You have to blacklist the com.liferay.document.library.file.rank.service module:
    1. Navigate to Control Panel > Configuration > System Settings > Module Container
    2. Add com.liferay.document.library.file.rank.service to Bundle Blacklist > Blacklist Bundle Symbolic Names
    3. Optionally, you can avoid some warning messages at startup related to Declarative Service Unsatisfied Component Checker by adding com.liferay.document.library.internal.service.DLFileRankDLAppHelperLocalServiceWrapper and com.liferay.document.library.internal.service.DLFileRankDLAppLocalServiceWrapper to Component Blacklist > Blacklist Component Names
    4. Restart the server
    5. See the following message in the console, showing successful blacklisting:
      2020-04-30 13:31:30.072 INFO  [ModuleFramework-Static-Bundles-2][BundleBlacklist:188] Stopping blacklisted bundle com.liferay.document.library.file.rank.service_2.0.20 [1122]
