Customize Login Page for 7.0x

[former_member188073]

Hi Guys,

With all the new Technology, mobile and cool things kicking, its become difficult to search for "old" stuff. I thought let me share what might be my first little experiment on 7.0x platform. Pardon my lazyness for not highlighting everything

Customizing Portal Logon Screen NW 7.01

1. Download Portal Screen par files for customizing
   1. Logon to Portal -> System Administrator -> Support -> Portal Runtime
   2. Drill down to ‘Test and Configuration Tools’ -> Browse deployment
   3. Navigate to pcd -> com.sap.portal.runtime.logon.par.bak
   4. Click ‘view’ and save the file. It would be saved as ‘com.sap.portal.support.browse.default.zip’.
   5. Rename the file with ‘.par’ extension
2. Customization of Logon par
   1. Import the par file into your NWDS           
       
   2. Open the J2EE perspective for making changes
      
   3. Add Libraries ‘com.sap.portal.runtime.logon_api.jar’ and ‘umelogonbase.jar’ to /dist/ PORTAL-INF/ lib. You can get it from the same par file which you downloaded at step 1.c at the same folder /PORTAL-INF/lib folder. Just to be sure I copied the entire contents in to dist directory.
   4. Edit Images "Branding-image.jpg", "Branding-image-portals.jpg", "Branding-text.gif", "Branding-text-portals.gif" and "sap_logo.png and saplogo.gif" as per your requirement. For further customization ‘umLogonPage.jsp ‘, ‘umTopArea.txt’ and ‘umContentArea.txt’ can be edited as per requirement. (refer last Image)
3. Deploy Application
   1. Export and deploy par file
      
      
4. Post activites
   1. Create custom authsceme.XML
   2. Logon on to Configtool and go to configuration edit mode. 
      
   3. Drill down to Configuration -> cluster_data -> server -> persistent -> com.sap.security.core.ume.service
   4. Create a Node                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
   5. Download authscheme.xml, replace “com.sap.portal.runtime.logon” with your par file name and save as file named in step 4.d.
   6. Upload this file in the node created in step 4.d
       
   7. Go back to the config tool mdoe and drill don to cluster-data-> Global Server Configuration -> services -> com.sap.security.core.ume.service and change the login.authscheme.definition.file entry,
   8. Restart server
