How to configure PRWebLDAP1 servlet redirect?
SA-3118
Summary
When configuring the PRPC system for IAC/PRGateway usage you need to set the configuration setting "Authentication/RedirectGuests" to false. This is required for proper PRGateway usage but you may also have other users groups accessing the system through a PRPC SSO Servlet. When this is set to false and displaying a login screen for a Data-Admin-AuthService, SSO authentication, there will not be a redirect to the URL containing the accessgroup hash.
Example:
http://abc.com/prweb/PRWebLDAP1
Will not redirect to:
http://abc.com/prweb/PRWebLDAP1/jRaiVJ0d9VtjKmKhrIm3rVrJSylGlV4CewQY5FZlTYg%5B*/!STANDARD?
Where "jRaiVJ0d9VtjKmKhrIm3rVrJSylGlV4CewQY5FZlTYg%5B* is the accessgroup that is defined in the Data-Admin-Requestor.Browser instance for the system name.
If you have customized the login screen to contain custom images these will not display on the login page.
Resolution
To resolve this issue you can add Javascript redirect to a URL that contains the accessgroup hash. This gets added into the login screen content, web-login for example:
var redirectLoc ="<pega:reference name="pxThread.pxReqURI" mode="normal" />";
if (location.href.indexOf(redirectLoc) == -1) {
document.location.href(redirectLoc);
}
The value of pxThread.pxReqUI will contain the proper accessgroup hash. If not part of the current URL then it will redirect and then custom images will display.
