APLAWS+ Forum Error & Portal Question

I couldn't find any documentation on how to access the ccm forum app in
the stable APLAWS+ 6.1 release.  I wanted to say, excellent error and
debug tracing found via "/ccm/ds". I am running on Tomcat 4 under
Windows 2000. I know Windows support is spotty, and I am going to move
my prod CMS env over to Fedora 1.91 shortly. Here are some questions
about the default portal application, which does not seem to use the
ccm-portal app, but some custom APLAWS portal:

Portal Questions
----------------

1) How can I add additional content areas on the portal home page?

2) I created a new content folder in the content admin:
/ccm/content/admin/. I created some new content items and added them to
the folder I created. I can access the new content items via
/ccm/portal/navigation/<folder-name>. How can I update the default
navigation bar on the top? Is the top nav bar static? New categories?

5) How do I integrate the subsites I create? I get to the /ccm/subsite
admin page. Create the subsite, but what then? How do I access subsite
from the cms content admin?

6) How do I link forms into the portal after creating in the content
center?

Forum Exception
---------------

I accidentally found the following uri for the forum: /ccm/portal/forum.
All other apps in CCM seem to work. I gave my admin user forum admin
permissions. I get the following exception in the log when accessing the
forum, any thoughts. Environment vars follow:
