Change BO's login image in infoview

[Former Member]

Dear experts,

I want to change the image showed in login page of infoview, but i don't know the path where the image in.

When i see the image properties i see the path: "http://server:port/InfoViewApp/common/appService.do?service=skinning&resource=img&img=img.banner.logo". This path is not reachable, so i need a way to discover where this image is stored. I guess it's stored in a folder on the server.

Does anyone know the path?

Best Regards,

Hi Pablo,

You can change the login picture or logo, in the Infoview and the CMC.

Go to your Business objects installation directory, e.g.

\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\InfoViewApp

There you will find two folders,

1. res

2. WEB u2013 INF

Under the res folder there is another folder named schema.blue , this is where you need paste your own GIF pictures which you wanted to change.

\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\InfoViewApp\res\schema.blue\

In the second folder, WEB u2013 INF you will find a web.xml file where the location of the picture is defined.

\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\InfoViewApp\WEB-INF\

EDIT that web.xml and add the name of your picture in the following area.

under

<u2014u2014-File resourcesu2014u2013>

<context-param>

<param-name>img.banner.logo</param-name>

<param-value>*login_banner_SAPBOBJ_logo.gif</param-value>

</context-param>

After the name of the picture to your picture. like below (John.gif)

<context-param>

<param-name>img.banner.logo</param-name>

<param-value>*John.gif</param-value>

</context-param>

Most important thing is, dont forget to take a copy of that web.xml file just in case you need to rollback to the original web.xml.

After Editing save the file and RESTART the SIA and Tomcat Services in CCM.

I hope this is a very helpful answer to you.

Kind regards,

John
