Trying to open a link in notification, but getting error

Question

Hi,
We have developed a custom page using JDeveloper. The same is registered as JSP Function in apps and is also imported in database. This page works fine.
We have developed a custom workflow. A notification is being sent to employees providing a link of above OA Page. ( Eg: Please click here )
When we click on 'Please Click here' , we get an error as given below
You are trying to access a page that is no longer active.
- The referring page may have come from a previous session. Please select Home to proceed.
Please suggest how to resolve this? thanx

Answer 1

Reason this is happening is that the page is not a bookmarkable page, that is the page is not self secured.
As the notification can be sent to a mail id, and then you try to launch the page, the page has not gone through the AOL security, and hence would not open.
what you need to do is make you page self secured, to do this .
you need to
1.Set the Security Mode property of your page to Self secured.
2.Implement the validateParameters() method in your page controller to validate the URL.
3.Then follow the instructions in the Page Security chapter of devguide.
Somehow I cannot find out the first two steps mentioned in the devguide, but this is what it is.
