Navigating from one page (Login) to another page (Home)

[arvind_pv]

Hi All,

When the user access my applications he should get the login page in one portlet window. Once he clicks the submit we need to check his credentials present in the database upon validating, he should see the home page which contains different portlets.

We are migrating our application to the portal server. So we don't want to change the existing functionality.

How do I redirect him from Login Page to Home page in JBoss Portal

Here are my application details

Portal Server : JBoss - 2.2
Application Server : JBoss - 4.0.3 SP1

Please give your suggestions on how to solve this problem.

Thanks

I found that the following works:

/portal/portal/ppoc/pageName

where ppoc is my portal name and the page name. The name come from the *-objects.xml file.

I haven't figured out why I need to put portal twice.

Hi Michel,

Could you please tell me in which file should I include the above code?

that is because of the basic structure of the portal, you can find this in the reference guide:

http://localhost:port/portal/

points to the default page of the default portal

the substring /portal/portalname/

(http://localhost:port/portal/portal/portalname/)

points to the default page of the portal "portalname"

Hi Thorsten,

I would like to know where should I include the above piece of code?

I have a login portlet (default page), after authentication the user should be redirected to home page(say page2).

My authentication code is under processAction() method.
Should i include the above piece of code as the requestdispatcher string in doView() method? If so, I am afraid it does not work...

Please send me some sample code if available..

I need this piece of information very urgently.

Thanks in advance...
