Enterprise Portal Redirection

Former Member · ‎01-09-2014

Hi Folks,

I am new to this Enterprise Portal, but here is the Situation.

Enterprise Portal is redirecting on to HTTP and we want it to Redirect it to a Secure HTTPS, we are not using SAP Web Dispatcher but a third party tool.

I have no idea which tool it is since the good folks that installed and configured that tool are gone and have left without a KT.

I would appreciate any help that I can get here.

The problem that I am facing is that the Who's who page is not redirecting properly and that is what I want resolved.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Folks this might be a ridiculous question but

1) how do you edit a .PFL file in UNIX somehow the vi editor is not working for me for that particular file type.

Does anybody know how to do that, I need to edit the sapwebdisp.pfl file.

Thanks.

Rishi thanks for the quick and prompt replies.

I have some confusion as to my own scenario. I have web dispacther on one Server which does not have a SAP Instance running and I have the EP running on Seperate Servers i.e. Dev, Qua and Prod.

Now When I read the notes that you provided above I am confused as what to do with the following:

1. Copy the library and the "sapgenpse" program to the $DIR_EXECUTABLE directory. Copy the "ticket" file to the $DIR_INSTANCE/sec directory on every application server

2. Set the environment variable SECUDIR to the $DIR_INSTANCE/sec directory for the application server's user, now there is no SAP Instance running on the Server where the Web Dispacther is installed. So do I set this variable on the EP Dev box ??

3. To replace the SAPSECUILIB library with the SAPCRYPTOLIB library, set the following profile parameters and restart the server(s).

ssf/name = SAPSECULIB

ssf/ssfapi_lib = <Path and file name of SAPCRYPTOLIB>

sec/libsapsecu = <Path and file name of SAPCRYPTOLIB>

Set these profile parameters in the instance profile and not in the default profile.

Now where do I set these Parameters in the Server where the Web Dispatcher is installed or where the EP Dev Server is present.

OR Shall I INstall the Web dispacther on the same server as the EP Dev.

Help is appreciated.

Hi Folks,

We have decide to install the SAP WebDispatcher after all, I am moving along but unfortunately I am stcuk at one point where when I am trying to uncar the sapgenpse.sar file the HP-UX is not allowing me to make the dir.

I am posting the detailed error below, I have changed the permissions as well but to no avail.

------------------------------------------------

SAPCAR: processing archive sapgenpse_3-20000565.sar (version 2.00)

x /QSYS.LIB/R3FIX640U.LIB/SAPGENPSE.FILE

SAPCAR: can not create directory /QSYS.LIB/R3FIX640U.LIB/SAPGENPSE.FILE (error 3). Permission denied

I don't know what is going wrong any suggestions are welcome. I have created the webdisp.pfl file and I am stuck at the following command

./sapgenpse get_pse -p SAPSSL.pse -x PIN -r SAPSSL.req "CN=<hostname>, OU=RIG, O=SAP, C=SG"

help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

Thank you all for the help,

What my company really wants to do is redirect

http://<Hostname1>:5<instancenumber>00>/irj/portal to

https://<hostname2>:5<instancenumber>00>/irj/portal

Hostname has also been modified to go to a new hostname, but the IP Address is the same.

Now I have tried to go into http://<Hostname>:5<instancenumber>00>nwa and went into virtual hosts and created a new virtual host apart from the default one.

I am still doing R&D in Dev and Qua. We are using a thrid party load balancer and not the standar SAP Web Dispatcher.

Help is appreciated

Hi,

Enterprise Portal is redirecting on to HTTP and we want it to Redirect it to a Secure HTTPS

Thanks

It is true that the tool might rewrite URLs but I doubt it. Rather than looking only at that tool, you might want to also look into how the involved SAP components determine and generate URLs. To begin, share the version details (incl. EHPs, SPs and patch levels) of what SAP components are involved. In order to help you with the Who's who problem, one has to first know what version you are using because the configuration is determined by it. With older versions the URL generation is determined by portal system landscape configuration (the system object), in newer versions Launchpad and/or backend configuration can be used.

You can use an http watcher (http watcher, fiddler or chrome developer toolbar - network) to find out what is being redirected. Maybe you can click on some http responses to find out what kind of software it is?
