Portal URL

[Former Member]

HI,

Can we change SAP Portal URL's to conventional URL. Say, SAP Portal URL is http://hostname:50000/irj. Can we change this to something like http://www.myportal.com.

Thank you.

Hi,

You need to install a Reverse Proxy server to accomplish what you are looking to do. This blog will be a good start for you.

Hi Hapizorr Rozi,

1. You change the Port by opening the Visual Administrator and going to : Dispatcher -> Services -> HTTP Provider

Change there the "Ports" entry from (Port:50000,Type:http)to (Port:80,Type:http). Then go on "Save".

2. To remove the "/irj" from the portal URL you can logon to visual administrator and go to (on the cluster tab)

Server --> Services --> HTTP Provider

and onthe right panel in enter the value /irj/portal for 'Start Page'

Save the properties exit visual admin and restart J2E engine.

3. You can assign a DNS alias like www.myportal.com for your hostname so that it can be also reached by that name.

Alternatively you can put a reverse proxy in front of the portal and redirect to from www.myportal.com(:80) to hostname:50000/irj

Hope this helps,

Robert
