Setting Language for a portal session

Hi,

My scenario is very simple; I need to set a language during a portal session.

I tried the following solutions.

1. Tried to change the SAPMLogonLogic.Class file. In the submit method of the jsp page, i tired to force the user store lanugage preference using com.sap.security.api but didn't work. <b>Can someone explain why it didn't change the user store language value? </b>

2. Tried to enable the language drop down in the portal page to see if a selection on the dropdown changes the session language.

3. saw couple of threads. one asking to modify masthead.par to get the logon language and reset the user store language value there. <i>I didn't try this. can someone validate if this would serve my scenario?</i>

Regards

Ak

PS: Points assured 😊
