OWA iViews and EP - configuration problem

Question

Hi All,
since EP60 SP2 P3 HF3 there are several OWA iViews under
Collaboration folder. According to SAP note 739911 alias of portal
user and exchange user (or exchange mailbox) MUST be identical to
connect to OWA.
Using Application Integrator "HOW TO..." I've tried to break this
condition above. But it does not work OK.
1. I've created Exchange system with UIDPWD logon method
2. I've mapped portal login with exchange login (in my case these are
not identical...)
In OWA iView Calendar:
3. I've set property system to above created system
4. I've set property URL Template to
http://owa.orion.myorg.org:81/Exchange/<Authentication>
5. I've set property "URL template fraction for user mapping" to <MappedUser>/Calendar/?cmd=contents
Test user has: Portal login: test ; exchange login:test_exchange
Preview is blank. But...when I saw properties of page link to OWA was
correct:
http://owa.orion.myorg.org:81/Exchange/test_exchange/Calendar.
When I copied this link to new window -> result was OK.
Where is the problem?

Hi Eric,
I think I've found the solution.
1) Download the com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap
2) Inside .par file try to find:
    PORTAL-INF\portalapp.xml
3) Add extra lines:
     <!-- RequestMethod -->
     <property name="RequestMethod" value="GET">
        <property name="personalization" value="none"/>
        <property name="inheritance" value="final"/>
        </property>
under G E N E R I C part of file.
4) Find PORTAL-INF\Property\Generic\SSO-Layer.properties
5) Add at the end of file extra lines:
RequestMethod
   #RequestMethod = <no value>
   RequestMethod.type=select[GET,POST]
   RequestMethod.default=GET
6) Using Support>Administration Console upload .par file again into EP.
7) Check the result of OWA iView preview.
In my case it helped!
