Re: Issue with ESS Standard WDA roles and Launch pad customization
Hi,
To understand the linkage between role and LPD_CUST go through this blog.
Tips & Recommendations for customizing ESS Menu (WD ABAP)
It depends upon which links are you trying to hide. You can hide links direct from the role since most of the applications are coming from role. You can change the visibility property from role. As far as links goes, you can get this information from the application name that its pointing in the iview present inside your custom role. So basically, what you need to do is, click on the links in role. Check if you get any error. If yes , the depending upon the error displayed the solution would have to be found out. In case of links to be hidden or to be renamed, first try doing it from portal role that you have uploaded.
To hide link -> In role , uncheck the checkbox for iviews.
To rename link -> Change name of link in iview.
For changes in application -> You need to check the application and then accordingly check if there is any feasibility of changes at application level.

Navya.

Re: Issue with ESS Standard WDA roles and Launch pad customization
Hi Navya,
Extremely sorry to say -that link I have reviewed 100 times, it does not talk about linking of PFCG roles and launchpad - it just talks about customizing launchpad menu.
I just need to know if after assigning PFCG roles - if make change in LPD_CUST, ESS_menu - should this work ?
Many thanks for all your support,

How to set HTTP header in portalLogon.jsp
Hi everyone!
We implemented customized portal logon app, using this guide Customizing Logon Page on Portal 7.3
No we want to implement NTLM authorisation, for this purpose I need to set HTTP header
I am trying to do it with such code in logonPage.jsp:
response.setHeader("WWW-Authenticate", "NTLM");
But server returns no WWW-Authenticate HTTP header to client, I guess becouse we have
some wrapper classe instead of HttpServletRequest and HttpServletResponse in our portal logon app.
This wrapper class erase any http header that I try to set I guess for security reasons.
So the question is how to configure portal logon app (or maybe some other portal environment)
to accept headers that we set at portal logon page jsp.
Thanks in advance!

Re: How to set HTTP header in portalLogon.jsp
Hi Mikhail, a task like this is typically done with a JAAS login module I guess.
Do you really mean NTLM and not Kerberos/SPNego? There is a completely configurable solution for SPNego by calling the wizard https://portal.domain.com/spnego without any coding needed.

Re: Issue with ESS Standard WDA roles and Launch pad customization
Hi,
Re read the answer to question 1 in that blog. Thats the answer. Till EHP6 , in case of ESS role, the overview iview pointed to application HRESS_A_MENU. This application uses a WD Component that reads the launchpad role/instance (ESS/MENU) and displays the UI. Thats the link.
In this thread , Siddharth has detailed out the menus in LPD_CUST that needs to be modified for MSS.
Role & Instace in Launch Pad Customization ?
As of now , first check the links that you want to change. Try doing it from role(Iview changes). If it does not work then depending upon error you need to see if it is pointing to LPD_CUST. You will have to check the application that is being called from the iview in the role.
In the screenshot, it look like portal admin has been assigned ESS, MSS roles. Ensure that actual R/3 user is assigned this role so that relavant data would be displayed.

Navya.

Re: Issue with ESS Standard WDA roles and Launch pad customization
Thanks Navya,
Clicking on check box on iviews to make services visible on portal can be done based on iview level on portal and that I could do it successfully.
But I do not think it is pointing to LPD_CUST.
The way I can make services invisible on portal by doing it on iview level , it should be achieved by changing in ESS_Menu launch pad also if PFCG role links to launch pad - that's my doubt since day one.

Re: Issue with ESS Standard WDA roles and Launch pad customization
Hi Navya,
Thanks for your inputs so far - quite valuable ones.
I am closing this thread now as it's been longest thread so far but I am sure, inputs provided by you will certainly help other consultants if they come across with such issues.
.............
This thread gives all perfect concept of PFCG role upload for ESS and MSS.
I still need to get a clear understanding on launchpad( roles in LPD_CUST) - when it actually works, if I am assigning PFCG role to user on Portal or if we assign standard portal role to user (content provided by user).?
If PFCG roles are also linked to LPD_CUST, why is that not working in my case

Re: How to set HTTP header in portalLogon.jsp
Hi Lutz!
There are some troubles with user domain name and portal user ID mapping, our basis team figured out that we have to implement NTLM by custom code like this Get username using NT Challenge (NTLM) - Real's Java How-to
So I have to set http header. Actually I tried to get original servlet response with this code
HttpServletResponse servletResponse = request.getServletResponse(false);
//gets the original servlet response
But this method also returns wrapper class and this class also erase header.
This code just do nothing (as far as I can see there are even no errors in log so cant figure out what is wrong)
HttpServletResponse servletResponse = request.getServletResponse(true);
I even tried to get original HttpServletrequest/response with reflection, but It is fragile attemp because
I have to call some non-pulic methods of wraper objects.

Re: Issue with ESS Standard WDA roles and Launch pad customization
Hi,
Assigning PFCG role to user on Portal (Ii.e. Role upload from back end to portal) -> This approach is used mostly in EHP7. Was available earlier as well but from EHP7 this is the only option to access roles in portal
Assign standard portal role to user (content provided by SAP in portal content section by deploying business packages). -> Till EHP 6 the role structure was different. You could deploy business packages and assign those role to user in portal. No need for role upload from backend (PFCG).
In both these cases, If you are using enterprise portal, you need to assign roles to end user. Role could be obtained either by deploying business package or by role upload from back end.
There is no hard and fast rule that to hide links you need to use PFCG /LPD_CUST. It completely depends upon the role that you are using. If your role has application that is pointing to LPD_CUST (example : HRESS_A_MENU) then to make applications work you need to use LPD_CUST. So usually in those role you will have minimal iviews and that will point to LPD_CUST which has all the other applications.
Attached is screenshot of ESS role in EHP6 which has only one iview "overview" which points to LPD_CUST. Rest of the iviews are OBN based iview which is called in runtime. In this case , you need to use LPD_CUST and change the visibility of application links.
But the roles that you have uploaded for WDA based EHP7 , to check whether it points to LPD_CUST, you can figure that out from the application name present in iview in role.
Hope this helps.

Navya

Stop header X-UA-Compatible
Our portal uses light framework page and I have already specified IE=Edge in Browser Mode in Portal Content-->Portal Users->Standard Portal Users-->Ligth Framework Page. But the portal (main page, https://my.abc.com) keeps sending header X-UA-Compatible = "IE=EmulateIE7".
Can anyone tell me what I have missed? It is EP 7.4, SP12

MSS Home Page - ERROR: WebDynpro Exception: IDs can only contain characters from the syntactical character set (termination: RABAX_STATE)
Hi Team,
We are NW 7.4 and have implemented ESS/MSS WDA application.
Initially all Iviews were working properly but all of sudden I am getting error on MSS home page as attached in thread.
I understand that this error comes up bcause of some config error, or master data but somehow I am not to figure out how and where some changes are inconsistent.
Please can I have some assistance and expert inputs on the same.
Many thanks

Re: Stop header X-UA-Compatible
Hi Dayong,
First of all light framework page is based on HTMLB that does not support standards mode, so it is not recommended to use it with IE=Edge.
2nd, since it is HTMLB based and HTMLB is only quirks mode HTMLB always add the x-ua-compatible header with EmulateIE7.
To fix the 2nd point SAP Note:
2255492 - X-UA-Compatible response header is set twice in classic framework page
It's also relevant for light framework page, by applying this note you will be able to use the browser document mode iView and whatever you set it on will reflect.

Check the visibility property for this iview and page in role. It should be set to visible.
