ssoErrorUrl Help

BrandonZ

Hey,

We have created a static HTML page that we want displayed if a user does not have access to an application. We plan on doing this using the ssoErrorUrl parameter in the formsweb.cfg file. The HTML page is already created and works. How do I reference that static HTML page via the URL?

Currently, our HTML page is stored in the same directory as the formsweb.cfg file. So, our parameter looks like this:

ssoErrorUrl=C:\oracle\Middleware_FR\user_projects\domains\MCWA_FR\config\fmwconfig\servers\WLS_FORMS\applications\formsapp_12.2.1\config\ssoErrorUrl.html

But, when redirected to this link the web page says:

Error 404--Not Found

From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1: 10.4.5 404 Not Found The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent. If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address.

Where do I have to place the HTML page and how do I reference it to avoid this error?

It's a URL that the browser needs to be able to see, not your actual file location on the system. If you have OHS, you can do a mapping to it, otherwise, if only using weblogic, then you will need to move the files to where static content is located.

How are calling the URL ?

What is your exact url ?

I assume that you are calling url virtually.

Try this put your ssoErrorUrl.html file this directory

C:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\user_projects\domains\base_domain\servers\WLS_FORMS\tmp\_WL_user\formsapp_12.2.1\<RANDOM DIRECTORY>\war\html

Call it like this

http://server_ip:port/forms/html/ssoErrorUrl.html

Hope it helps you.

handat,

How do I do a mapping to it through OHS?

If I wanted to do the weblogic option, where do I place the file and how do I call it?

Kalpataru,

The Forms Application calls the URL based upon what you set as the ssoErrorUrl.

I don't know my exact URL, that's the problem. I only have the HTML file I just created.

I tried your suggestion but got the same error.
