*.portal file not showing certain images (WLP 8.1)

Question

Hi,
In WL portal 8.1 I have a portlet with 2 images: one made by the html tag
<img>, one made by the jsp tag <netui:image>
In a direct test of the portlet's page flow they both show up.
Inside a portal file they also both show up.
But the minmized, maximized buttons of the portlet don't show (they get a
red X)
I have 2 images in the header references by my own shell: one <img>, one
<netui:image>.
in a direct test they both show up.
Inside a portal file only the <img> (which uses request.getContentPath() by
the way) shows up.
How do I get my image to show up?
You can easy recreate this problem: Open a new portal application, a new
portal web project and a new portal file.
Then create a new page flow (based on for example the user login control)
and drag this one in the portal file.
Select minimized and maximized button and take a look at the portal file.
Thank you for any and all help,
Geoffrey

Tomas,
This is a known limitation and will be fixed in SP2. At the moment, WLP can
only authenticate and generate profiles for users out of a single ATN
provider.
See the link below for how to properly identify the ATN provider.
SOLUTION:
You can only use com.bea.p13n.security.Authentication to login to the portal
app for users who are in the configured authentication provider. Specify
the
configured authentication provider with the system property
"com.bea.p13n.usermgmt.AuthenticationProviderName" when you start up the
server or use usermgmt-provider.properties with the property
"com.bea.p13n.usermgmt.AuthenticationProviderName". See the javadoc for the
RealmHelper at
http://edocs.bea.com/wlp/docs81/javadoc/com/bea/p13n/usermgmt/RealmHelper.ht

Hallo,
I configured an external Ldap server for authenticating users. Also, Iwant to
enable p13n for users. Therefore, I have login portlet callingAuthentication.login(name,
pwd, req) and that login method should load profile for the user beinglogged
in.
That's ok, all work fine.
The problem starts when using 2 authentication providers. I want portaladministrators
(weblogic, ...) to be in WL internal Ldap and employees to be in anexternal Ldap.
First auth.provider is the DefaultAuthenticator (with sufficient flag) andthe
second is OpenLdapAuthenticator (with required flag).
And now, user profile is loaded for internal users only !!!
When I try to log in as an employee (member of external Ldap) I'm loggedin well
and then an exception is thrown - user profile is not loaded due to "userwas
not found".
See stacktrace in appended file.
Any idea?
Thanks,
