Portal URL aliases
Hi, I want to configure portal alias. before doign this I want to clarify some of the below things
1. Whats the diff between Quick link and URL alias?
2. As per the below URL I can understand that if I do the change in web.xml file with the new alias http://<url>:<port>/irj/portal/mydetails(ex) it will take me to mydetails page directly(acts like quicklink)
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/6e/8590f1d6d349c9adc34c6a8085189b/content.htm
3. I want to create URL alias for an iView(ex : ESS iView) is this possible? If posible how to do this?
Thanks
In that case you can configure desktops based on the role that the user has .
If role = abc , then desktop=desktop1 .
1) If user is not having above role then you can assign him a dummy role with entry point no and again set desktop based on dummy role and take him to a page saying that you do not have this role or privileges .
2) If you want all the users who do not have role abc to be displayed a specific role then all you need to do is set entry point of the dummy role as yes .
3) Another option would be placing all those users who do not have role abc under one group and configure desktop based on that .
This is how you can use desktops to achieve your requirement . Another option would be to code in TLN and check if the user is not having role abc then take him to a page showing custom message .

How Sap SDN do it? - navigation change Portal URL
Hi:
If you check SDN home page you´ll see that almost every link changes the url site but the content is display in content area ( do not change the page completly). I was wondering how that could be done as my EP has always the same URL.
I checked:
URL Generator Service
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7d/236cfa17034a37a439dc392ec59eb0/frameset.htm
Portal URL Aliases
Portal navigation
and ECPM stuff
I´m not quite sure if there´s a configuration at Visual admin/Portal that enables this behavior.
Thanks a lot for your time on this thread.
Rocío.We can also create a unique url for every page or iview.
There is a property called Quick Link which exists for every page/iview
Let us say open a page as object and set the Quick Link property as 'abc'
Then you can access that page directly from the url // http://<yourhostname>:<portno>/irj/portal/abc
hope it helps you to some extent.

Maintaining Portal Desk top URL aliases in web.xml file
Hi All,
I am planning to configure portal url alias i.e http://localhost:53000/irj/portal/finance
should take me directly to finance portal desk top.
1) Created a Desktop named finance_desktop
2) Master rule has been set for URL Alias.
3) I need to set URL alias name: finance in web.xml file
4) path for the web.xml file is C:\usr\sap\SID\JCXX\j2ee\cluster\server0\apps\sap.com\irj\servlet_jsp\irj\root\WEB-INF\web.xml
5) Where exactly i have to change web.xml file
Infact i have seen a pdf "How to configure the J2ee engine deployment descriptor"
Thanks in advance
Regards,
MuraliHi
indeed one small copy/paste mistake from me ... sorry for that...
After you copyed the large chunk of code (as i discribe in step 1 and 2) you must rename:
<param-name>portal</param-name>
to
<param-name>portal/finance</param-name>
so then that part of the web.xml will look like this:
<init-param>
<param-name>portal</param-name>
<param-value>
anonymous=0,proxy=0,low_bandwidth=0,include_in_url=1,include_application_name_in_url=1
</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>portal/finance</param-name>
<param-value>
anonymous=0,proxy=0,low_bandwidth=0,include_in_url=1,include_application_name_in_url=1
</param-value>
</init-param>
Good luck again...

How to create an External Alias for a Portal URL ?
Hi Gurus,
Can anybody tell me how to create an external alias for a portal link(URL). Actually, my problem is i want to send this Portal URL(link) thru' a SendMail step to the user so that when he clicks on it, it will take him to his UWL(Ofcourse after signing-in). As this URL length is > 80 char(101 char), i am not getting the full lenght URL in my Outlook mail. THough we are on ECC 6.0,Basis Rel 7.0, as per the OSS note 559234, we should have this length extended to 132 bytes. But, for some reason, its not happening. And,in the same OSS note, it was mentioned that we can use external aliases to achieve this(shortening the URL length).
Can anybody tell me how to achieve this, either thru' increasing the URL length or thru' ext. aliases.
Please reply asap.
Thanks in advance
venuNot an issue as of now. I'll open up again if needed

How to catch URL parameter from Portal URL in Web Dynpro iView
Hi All,
I have a web dynpro application running as a portal iView successfully. Now the client wants to make it internationalized with 7 languages. Currently they access the portal - and via role assignment they get to the portal tab with the wd iView. Now they want to send a parameter for the language key with the portal URL. So when they are typing in http://myportal.mydomain.com now they want to type in http://myportal.mydomain.com?sap-locale=de or so. My question is how can I catch this parameter in the WD application when it is running inside a portal iView? Is it at all possible?
I have written a very small application which is trying to catch a URL parameter named PARAM. The code I have written is the default one as below:
String paramValue = WDWebContextAdapter.getWebContextAdapter().getRequestParameter("PARAM");
When I run the application standalone and add the PARAM=something in last of the URL I can catch it. But when I create an iView and while previewing it I add the same PARAM value it is coming as null all the time. Same when I add this iView to a role and show it via role assignment in protal. Please help to let me know how to achieve this. I think if I can read the parameter value from Portal URL in the WD iView - then I can set it as the default locale of the application and then show language specific file to achieve internationalization.
Your urgent help will be highly appreciated.
Warm Regards,
ShubhoHi Shubhadip
Even if you get the parameters, how do you internationalize your application? Are you not following the standard way as described in the following link. In this case you never need to capture any such parameter. This is done by the WD runtime automatically .
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/f4/d95664da179b4db731e21c2e470b72/frameset.htm">Internationalization of WD projects</a>
You can retrieve application parameters specified at the creation of iview by "adding parameters(with the same name as in iview application parameters) to the default plug of the Component Interface View of the WD application". "onDefaultPlug" method of the interface view controller you get these values as parameters, which you can save in the context node of component controller for later use.This is guaranteed to work.
But again this is not what you want exactly. You want the user to specify the value at runtime. If you have just 7 languages, you can create 7 set of iviews with different application parameter value indicating language key, and assign to 7 different set of roles, each representing one set of users with common language.
I hope you find a solution.

SSO is not working for an Alias URL but is working for original portal URL
Hello,
We have a BSP running inside the portal and expects authentication.
When I run this BSP using the portal regular address everything is working OK and SSO is working after logging into the portal.
At next step, we have configured an alias for the portal URL at the DNS Server.
When activating the BSP from the alias URL it asks for 2nd authentication. Meaning, SSO is not working after logging into the portal.
I have activated an HTTP trace in order to see why and it seems like when running it from the alias name it recognizes it as a different domain and I assume this is why the authentication is coming up.
I would like to suppress this for the alias URL but don't know how.
I found this UME property on the server:ume.logon.security.relax_domain.level
This UME property controls the amount of sub domains to remove from the server name to obtain the domain for which the logon ticket is valid.
I have changed this property from its default value 1 to 3 (and restarted the server of course) which, in our case, leaves only ourCompany.com for the ticket in the original server URL. Yet, the authentication pop up is still not supressed when browsing through the alias URL.
Any idea what can I do next?
Thanks,
RoyHi Dezso,
I found the 401 let me know if I look on it right:
I have an entry node with two subnodes: request and response.
The response has:
<responseStatus>HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized</responseStatus>
And the request before that doesn't have any MYSAPSSO2 in it, all it has which is related to cookies is this:
<header name="Cookie">UserUniqueIdentifier=1174345919524; alreadyLogged=1179560552416</header>
<cookies>
<cookie name="alreadyLogged">1179560552416</cookie>
<cookie name="UserUniqueIdentifier">1174345919524</cookie>

Can you advice what to do next? -
External portal capturing internal portal URL in Log and trace file
Hi,
We are facing one issue in portal like we have two portals for internal (Intranet) and external (Internet) users.
Once users logged in the application and try to get the information about mylink from the external portal link (internet) they should not get any information about the internal portal.
But in log and trace file we can see the external portal link capturing the internal portal URL.
We need to find, from where system capturing the internal portal URL.
Thanks.The tkproffed trace file is in seconds.
"set timing" is in hh:mi:ss.uu format. So 00:00:01.01 is 1.01 seconds.
You have to remember that most of these measurements are rounded. While your trace file says it contains one second of trace data, you know it's more.
One excellent resource for trace files is "Optimizing Oracle Performance" by Cary Millsap & Jeff Holt. (http://www.amazon.com/Optimizing-Oracle-Performance-Cary-Millsap/dp/059600527X ) I thought I knew trace files before, but this book brings your knowledge to a whole new level.
There is also an excellent WP by Cary Millsap ( http://method-r.com/downloads/doc_details/10-for-developers-making-friends-with-the-oracle-database-cary-millsap ) that gives you some insight. -
The portal url appears in external links in XML Forms
Hi,
I have created an XML Forms application that should contain a link to an external webpage.
In the Edit view I have created 2 text fields.
1 for the url and 1 urlname for the name of the link.
In the Show view I have created a link (Lable) with:
Hyperlink property: /DataSchema/DataModel/url
Schema Reference: /DataSchema/DataModel/urlName
Style : Function Link
When I run the application It renders the link as a link with the urlname as the name of the link.
Great !! ;0)
<b>...but</b> when clicking on the link it open up a new window with the <b><b><b>portal URL</b> + the specified url:</b></b>
E.g.
Test data:
Name: Google
URL: http://www.google.com
Result:
<b>http://<portalurl>:58000/irj/portal/http://www.google.com</b>
Why does this happen? And what can I do in order to open up the new window with just the url that I have provided (http://www.google.com)
Thanks for any help !
Best regards
RasmusHi All and thanks for all help
But..
The thing is that it has nothing to do with the application.
E.g. I have tested the <b>SAP_APP_FAQs</b> forms application delivered by SAP.
This forms application has an external link called <b>Read more </b>When I test this forms application everything is OK. It opens up the target URL in a new window e.g. <b>http://www.google.com</b>
This is exactly what I want so I make a copy (save as) of the project. I run the application and believe it or not I got the wrong result: <b>http://<portalurl>:58000/irj/portal/http://www.google.com</b>
I have not made any changes of the application!!
Can any tell me whats wrong?
Thanks in advance
Best regards

How to Hide user & pass in PORTAL URL
Hi Experts,
I need a help on portal URL. We are using SSA (Spend Analytics) in Portal. One of the option in portal is that you can generate an E-mail Link of a report which goes to users.
Link looks like this for end user (They receive it via E-Mail)
http://Host:Port/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtrootxapps.analytics.ds_par.inbounds?guid=CC1E61FF_7B3F_45CB_A3BE_B00F6BD487B7&objType=REPO&objId=0DA4575B_3C28_E6D8_66C5_04008115C625
Users should be able to view this link as soon as they click on it. If a user is already logged into portal and copy and paste the link, it works fine. However, if a user is not logged in and copy and past this link to IE, It automatically changes URL to something else and shows user & password
This is how it looks like. URL changes to the following link..
http://HOST:PORT/irj/portal?j_user=XYZ_USER&j_password=XYZ_PASS&submit_logon=true
So I'm not sure what is making portal to redirecting the link to (http://HOST:PORT/irj/portal?j_user=XYZ_USER&j_password=XYZ_PASS&submit_logon=true) when they enter generated link (http://Host:Port/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtrootxapps.analytics.ds_par.inbounds?guid=CC1E61FF_7B3F_45CB_A3BE_B00F6BD487B7&objType=REPO&objId=0DA4575B_3C28_E6D8_66C5_04008115C625) and why is it showing user/pass and from where is it picking user & password.
I kindly request all experts to please help me in this. I want to hide users/pass and make sure the link works fine without getting redirected it.
Your help is much appreciated
Thanks in Advance!!

How to pass username and password with the portal url
i want to access portal from my web site. i have created username and password fields in my web page. when submited , my portal page should open. so how to pass username and password with the portal url.
This is not straightforward; but it is doable.
First tell us about your portal version; portal 10.1.4 has a slightly different method of doing it and the pre-10g portals were completely different animals.
And if you are in AS Rel 2, then the most important document for you would probably be the following:
[Creating Deployment Specific Pages| http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/idmanage.1012/b14078/custom.htm#i1015535]
You might want to use it in conjunction with some metalink notes about your portal version and such a login page.
hope that helps!

Significance of Port No in Portal URL
Hi Everybody,
I wanted to know the concept of port no in portal URL.Sometimes i am able to access my portal with http://myportal:50000/irj/portal and sometimes even without port no.
Is 50000 default port for http portal?then what about 80 even if i give this port instead of 50000 i am able to access portal.
Can anybody throw light on this?
Thanks in Advance
Rani AHi Rani,
The port is decided like this
50000 + ( J2EE instance No * 100)
ie if J2EE port is 00 then 50000
If J2EE port is 01 then 50100
If J2EE port is 02 then 50200
For Visual administrator it is like 50004 or 50104 or 50204
Etc like this for each use.

Portal url redirection....
Hi All,
our portal is going for migration. so we want our users not to enter into our portal.
for that we want to show some message when user enters the url. some message like a"portal is under maintenance please login after some time" this should come when user enters the url.
to be more clear....
our portal url is https://trainingServerUrl.com this will show the login page to the user where he will enter his login id and password.
now....
for next few days.......
when user enters https://trainingServerUrl.com in the browser, it should say portal is under maintenance please login after some time" . i.e. it should not show the login page at all.
PradeePthanks again.....
I can not follow this.... because it will effect for the original server. which i dont want because some others should work on the server like administrator to do the migration work and soo...
actually, http://trainingServerUrl.com is pointing to http://servername:50000/irj/portal.
if I do as you said.... no one can see the login page even by using http://servername:50000/irj/portal.
I just want the user who enter http://trainingServerUrl.com in the browser should get the message. other users who enter http://servername:50000/irj/portal can use the portal.
