Hi,
doing "make rpm" will actually build Engine using Maven and produce RPMs, but
you might also want to deploy Engine EAR that was built to JBoss server via "make
install_artifacts".
Thus I assume the master build does not default to compiling for all
browsers?
Aside from "make rpm-quick", which builds quick & dirty RPMs for Firefox
[gwt.userAgent=gecko1_8], I don't see any "gwt.userAgent" stuff in makefile,
so the master build defaults to compiling for all browsers, unless you override this via
"EXTRA_BUILD_FLAGS".
I think an easier way to do this is as Alona suggested, invoking Maven build directly:
$ "mvn clean install -Pdep,gwt-admin,gwt-user", but it's up to you.
Anyway, I think the problem isn't related to "gwt.userAgent" property at
all. If the GWT permutation for IE is missing, blank page will be shown, as GWT
permutation selector script (*.nocache.js) will not be able to load that permutation.
I think the problem might be caused by your client's IE browser settings. As per [1],
IE should render HTML page with "<!DOCTYPE html>" using standards mode;
rendering mode which WebAdmin and UserPortal require. So if you see garbled mess in IE, it
means IE doesn't render HTML page in standards mode, but in other (quirks?) mode, due
to some IE browser settings override.
The "X-UA-Compatible" meta-tag actually *forces* IE to render HTML page in
standards mode, which overrides any IE browser settings:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9"/>
(I think we should reconsider adding this meta-tag due to reasons above, to ensure better
compatibility with IE.)

NVM got it --> BUILD_FLAGS=-Dgwt.userAgent=ie8,ie9,gecko1_8,safari,opera
-Pgwt-admin,gwt-user,dep
Building now.

Hi,
Instead of doing make rpm please compile manually using the following command:
mvn clean install -Dgwt.userAgent=ie8,ie9,gecko1_8,safari,opera -Pgwt-admin,gwt-user,dep
