Change Portal Desktop & Theme using URL Alias

72 Views

Dear Experts,

I've defined several aliases in the file web.xml as explained in

Link: [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/4b/29cf122f414721964269e1b675d62c/frameset.htm]

For example, i've created "portal/application1" and "portal/application2" aliases.

Each of the aliases represents an applicantion deployed in our Portal Server. The idea behind this is to define different Portal Desktops & Themes using the URL Alias Option.

This works perfect.

Before doing this, I had several quick links defined. Each of these Quick Links pointed to the main page of each application. For Example, if I type "http://portalserver/irj/portal/application1" the Portal shows me the main page of "Application 1"

Of course, my new aliases are called exactly as the quick links, cause my illusion is that when I type the url "http://portalserver/irj/portal/application1" the portal will show me the application I want with the Portal Desktop & theme I want.

The issue i'm facing is that both things are not working in parallel. If I define an alias with the same name as the quick link, I can see the Theme I want but i'm not beig redirected to the main page of my application.

If I remove the alias, I can see the application I want but with the standard Theme.

Any ideas on how to get both things working together?
