The portal works with Apache Tomcat 7. So if you are upgrade a portal deployed within the previous version Apache Tomcat 6, you will have to:
upgrade the tomcat configuration used (please refer to standard documentation for this).
If on executing this exercise you should run in to the following Tomcat error:

please upgrade the server.xml version of the Geoserver that you are using, commenting out the highlighted line that only provides support for the JMX technology that is not in use in the portal.
For more information about the bug fix, please refer to:
NOTE: This solution has to be considered a workaround. In facts, this error case should not happen if you properly deploy the portal using the last version of the Chef receipt available on this github project.
