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 A

Hi 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.

Change portal URL and port number

Hello experts,
We are on EP 7.0 which is running on Solaris 5.10 and Oracle 10g.
Portal url is "http://hostname:50200/irj".
But we want to users to logon portal using "http://intranet" link.
How can we forwards portal default url to a different URL and port such as "http://intranet".
Steps should be followed in Visual Admin& Config Tool or in the Solaris system , in the network part?

The link pointed to how to change the default page of the Java engine to launch the portal. The example redirects to /irj/portal/anonymous - you just want to make it /irj/portal...
Setting up SAP Web Dispatcher is covered in SDN quite well - search for SAP Web Dispatcher in the search aree on the right. Basically it takes about 5 minutes to setup.

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!!

Portal url redirect

Hi All,
Because of a requirement, I wanted to retreieve the requestURL and append compnay name to it for identification and redirect the url.
basically if my portal url is http:
<servername:port>\irj\portal , then get the hostname and append to portal url at the end as portalurl\hostname and make the request to this url.
From here onwards this should be portal url throught the session. I am doing like this but it is not working
String strReqURL = request.getRequestURL().toString()==null?"" : request.getRequestURL().toString();
     if ( strReqURL != null) {
          System.err.println("Before request url is"+request.getRequestURL());
          StringBuffer redirectUrl = new StringBuffer(strReqURL);
          redirectUrl.append("/hostname");
Please help me out in resolving this issue.
Thanks

Hi,
have you tried to get the HttpServletRequest associated with the IPortalComponentRequest and retrieve the server name from there?
HttpServletRequest req = request.getServletRequest();
String server = req.getServerName();

You could also do this by Javascript and add the JS code to the index.html located at /irj/index.html

Generate SAP Portal URL in ABAP

Hi all
I am faced with a task that involves fetching data from SAP E-Recruiting, and presenting it in an XML document which is indexed by a search engine. The data I extract from E-Recruiting, will be used to display a short listing of available positions in the company on an internal website.
I am able to extract the data, and present it in XML, but the following is a bit more difficult for me.
The challenge is this:
For each position I exctract from E-Recruiting, I need to find a way to generate a complete "portal style" URL. This URL will take users browsing the website, to the E-Recruiting job advertisement in the SAP portal. The SAP Portal will display the complete E-recruiting job advertisement, when the users click a "Read more" link in the short listing.
An example URL is this:
http://<i>server:port</i>/sap(bD1lbiZjPTUwOCZkPW1pbg==)/bc/bsp/sap/hrrcf_req_dovr/application.do?BspClient=508&BspLanguage=EN&rcfSpID=0003&PARAM=UE9TVF9IUk9CSkVDVD0wMU5DNTAwMDExNTQ%3d
I need to do this in "regular" ABAP / ABAP OO programming, not BSP or something like that. Is there some function module that will do this for me? I collect all my information from the tables HRP51* (i.e. HRP5122).
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Thomas K

the example url you have given is not portal url
An example URL is this:
http://server:port/sap(bD1lbiZjPTUwOCZkPW1pbg==)/bc/bsp/sap/hrrcf_req_dovr/application.do?BspClient=508&BspLanguage=EN&rcfSpID=0003&PARAM=UE9TVF9IUk9CSkVDVD0wMU5DNTAwMDExNTQ%3d
its a bsp url.
if you want to generate bsp url you can use the following method from your abap program
DATA: params TYPE tihttpnvp.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <wa_params> LIKE LINE OF params.
fill params table with other url parameters you want
like BspClient=508
APPEND INITIAL LINE TO params ASSIGNING <wa_params>.
    <wa_params>-name = 'BspClient'.
    <wa_params>-value = '508' .
CALL METHOD
      cl_http_ext_webapp=>create_url_for_bsp_application
      EXPORTING
        bsp_application      = 'HRRCF_REQ_DOVR'
        bsp_start_page       = 'application.do'
        bsp_start_parameters = params " other url params
      IMPORTING
        local_url            = url.
if this bsp is running inside portal as an bspiview and you want to reach this iview directly from a url then the url is different , it is basically the path of the iview in the Portal Content Directory
Hope this helps.

Change Portal URL in MSCS Java

Portal URL in mail template

Hello,
We are using SAP Enterprise Portal for doing a Single sign on to E-Sourcing 5.1.
When users receive email notifications from the standard mail message templates - the host and port name are from the cluster.
But in our scenario - we want the same document url to be the portal url which then redirects users to the actual E-Sourcing page after signing into portal.
To me it seems to be a very common requirement when using SAP EP to SSO with E-Sourcing.
Can someone guide us on how this can be accomplished?
Regards,
Srivatsan

Thanks Vikram for your comments.
You asked us to raise an OSS message - Do you think SAP has a solution to this in 5.1? We are currently on SP10.
In the meantime - we developed a small application in portal which redirects the user from portal to the specific mail token %document_url% or document_header_url.
So, basically in the mail message template- we tried adding the path
http://<portalhostname>:<portalport>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/RedirectApp.redirectApp?redirectURL=%DOCUMENT_URL%
Now - when the user gets the mail and clicks the link - he is made to login first to portal and then it attempts to redirect to the document. But it somehow ends up taking the user to workbench. In the workbench, when we hit a back button - it takes us to the document (MA or Contract as the case may be).
We are trying to troubleshoot this. But looks like during SSO - irrespective of the URL (%DOCUMENT_URL%) - portal only takes us first to workbench.
We want to avoid taking user to workbench and want to directly take the user to the document, since we would lose a key functionality just because we switched to having SSO with portal.

Srivatsan

SImple URL to map to full Streaming Portal URL

After I have created my portal in workshop, I have a .portal file. Using the portal
administrator, I have created a portal and a desktop. To access my portal I use
an URL of the form:

MY QUESTION IS HOW DO I MAP THIS TO A URL OF THE FORM WWW.BEA.COM?

Thanks.
While I m aware of your solution and it works, I have URL in HTML files that currently

Can you tell me how to transform this link such that it works with your solution.
Thanks.

Good question! Here's what was suggested and I did:
In your portal app, create another WebApp. I called mine: RootRedirector
This
Web App is configured to be at "/" in the portal's application.xml
The RootRedirector's web.xml has either a servlet or jsp config.ed to
be at "/"
or do nothing and create index.jsp. Index.jsp does:
request.sendRedirect("http://host:port/beas/ugly/long/path/to/my/portal/that/needs/better/solution");
This works. BTW, the browser only incures the redirect expense once and
works
with load balancers if the path you hard code here is the virtual host
or port
or load balanced URL.
It's a hack but works. I feel this feature should be built into the
Portal product
JMO.
Good luck, curt

Apache Url rewrite for portal URLs

Hi,
I have a requirement where i need to write simple URL's for the default portal uRL's
for example
inspite of using default url like "http://myserver:port/portal/server.pt/community/abc_xyz/123/efg_jkl/12345",
if user uses
"http://myserver:port/portal/server.pt/xyz"
It should navigate to same default URL.
Can somebody let me know how this can be achieved.
I know Url rewriting is done through Apache Url rewrites but do not have an idea how apache does it with portal Url's. What configurations need to be done in order to manage portal Url's with apache rewrites.
Thanks
Ajay

Hi Ryan,
Thanks for the reply. The link shows how to write the Rewrite rules in apache. I am familier with that. The actual problem is that how can the portal Url's be controlled by apache rewrites. My apache and weblogic are both on the same server instance but after writing the rewrite in httpd.conf file. It does not work out. Just want to know how can i tell apache to handle my portal Url's too.
Is there any specific entry that we need to make for doing this.
Thanks
Ajay

Q on the various ports used by portal .... can anyone reply this ..?

this is w r t the Oracle 9iAS Release 2 (9.0.2) installation guide for Sun SPARC Solaris, found at following -
http://portalcenter.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/DOCTEAM/DOCINSTCONF/INSTALL.PDF
Goto Appendix F - Default Port Numbers and Port Ranges
Section F.1 - 9iAS Port Usage (sorted by component)
Heading - Oracle HTTP Server the port numbers are mentioned as following -
Component Default Port Port Range
Oracle HTTP Server
Oracle HTTP Server - non SSL 7777 7777-7877
Oracle HTTP Server - SSL 4443 4443-4543
Oracle HTTP Server Listen - non SSL 7777 7777-7877
* Oracle HTTP Server Listen - non SSL 7778 7777-7877
Oracle 9iAS web cache is installed and
configured
Oracle HTTP Server - SSL 4443 4443-4543
** Oracle HTTP Server Listen - SSL 4444 4443-4543
Oracle 9iAS web cache is installed and
configured
******** now check the settings for Oracle 9iAS Web Cache in the same document -
Component Default Port Port Range
Oracle9iAS Web Cache
+ Oracle9iAS Web Cache HTTP Listen-non-SSL 7777 7777-7877
++ Oracle9iAS Web Cache HTTP Listen-SSL 4443 4443-4543
question :- as seen from the above, the same document has 2 contradictory port numbers. in the settings for Oracle HTTP Server it says ..
1. port 7778 is used by Oracle HTTP Server Listen - non SSL Oracle 9iAS web cache marked with an (*) in the first section
2. port 4444 is used by Oracle HTTP Server Listen - SSL Oracle 9iAS web cache marked with (**) in the first section
now if you see the settings for Oracle 9iAS Web Cache it says ..
1. port 7777 is used by Oracle 9iAS Web Cache HTTP Listen-non-SSL marked with an (+) in second section above
2. port 4443 is used by Oracle 9iAS Web Cache HTTP Listen-SSL marked with an (++) in second section above
both the sections contradict eachother .... can someone pls verify which ports are used for what ....?
also ... say, if the Webcache uses port 7778, does that mean the portal URL would be http://host.domain:7778/pls/portal ?
can someone explain the concept of the webcache and how it is accessed ...
thanx

Simplify Portal URL

Hello.
EP6 SP15. Our EP6 will soon replace our company's home intranet site which runs on MS IIS standard port 80. Currently, when users want access to our corporate intranet site, they can open a browser and type "sooners" and the site's home page displays. "Sooners" is an alias for the hostname of the web server in our DNS.
Is there a way to set up the same type of alias for the portal? Our goal is to keep the same alias and have users be directed to the Portal homepage instead of the current intranet site. A user would type in "sooners" and be directed to http://hostname.domain.com:50000/irj. It would also be great if this alias stayed in the address bar and the normal portal url (http://hostname.domain.com:50000/irj was never seen.
I believe I've seen this type of redirection using a (Apache) reverse proxy, but is this possible using just the portal on an internal-only windows domain or must a reverse proxy be used?
Thanks in advance for the help.

Progress. More configuration changes to the httpd.conf file have paid off. I'm now redirected to the portal login page AND the portal url is hidden. YEA! (this was due to the "ProxyPreserveHost On" line in the code below). One more step and I'm there.
The reverse proxy doesn't seem to be forwarding the /irj. In other words, I can type "sooners" in a web browser and I'm redirected to http://portalhost.domain.com:50000 (displayed as http://sooners in the address bar) which is the JAVA admin page. I can also type in "sooners/irj" and I'm redirected to http://portalhost.domain.com:50000/irj (displayed as http://sooners/irj in the address bar) which is the portal login.
I would like to type in "sooners" and be directed to http://portalhost.domain.com:50000/irj (the portal login page).
Here's the httpd.conf code I'm using:
#Enable reverse-proxying
ProxyVia on
ProxyTimeout 600
#disable forward-proxying
ProxyRequests off
ProxyPreserveHost on
#proxy / both ways
ProxyPass / http://portalhost.domain.com:50000
ProxyPassReverse / http://revproxy.domain.com
#proxy /irj both ways
ProxyPass /irj http://portalhost.domain.com:50000/irj
ProxyPassReverse /irj http://revproxy.domain.com/irj
#proxy /logon both ways
ProxyPass /logon http://portalhost.domain.com/logon
ProxyPassReverse /logon http://revproxy.domain.com/logon
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
