General login page for all users?
Hello, does a general login page exists for all users to access their apps?
The main page "/webtools/control/main" has a login link that sends me to the
admin login page "webtools/control/checkLogin" BUT only the admin can login
here... all other users get an error.
Is there a login page for all? Where anyone can login to access their
specific apps?
For example in Opentaps, once you log in with any user, then you can see the
apps you have access to. So what's the best way to achieve this in Ofbiz?
(and please don't say the best way is to give each user the specific app URL
- i don't find that very user friendly :p )
Also, what's the purpose of the main page at "/webtools/control/main" only
thing there is a login link that simply sends you to the admin login page...
How can I modify this page, and is it possibly get it to act as the main
login page as explained above? I will have to modify this page, because when
I log out it sends me there.
Thank you for taking the time to read this :)

Hi Alex,
Thank you for reviving the GitHub repository. While it is not ready for
inclusion in the OFBiz code base (a.o. it lacks license references), I feel
confident that a lot of adopters can take hints from it to make their
implementations more user friendly.
Best regards,
Pierre Smits

Hi Julien, thanks for taking the time to reply. I wanted a similar login
experience like what OpenTaps offers, and created this. As I said 5 years
ago, I didn't find it very user-friendly. Why should the user have to
remember 5 different URL's? That seemed like a strange thing to do, when I
can just give them one URL. Appreciate the feedback, thanks!

Hi Alex,
I'm not sure about the purpose of this feature. What is the difference
between this feature and bookmarks ?
If the user have bookmark for his preferred webapp, he have to select
it, log in and that's all. With this main login page, you'll add a click
in the process.
I'm not sure that is useful but maybe it could be interesting for the
community, let people add comments.
My 2 cents,
Julien.

Just use the same code as the existing applications. Look in

Re: General login page for all users?
Posted by apf <al...@gmail.com>.
Great, that's exactly what I'm after. I've created an app with no root mount
point. But how does one call or create the login page to work with Ofbiz,
any example available? Or what's the location of the existing login form(s),
can I use that as a start point?
Kind Regards,
AP

Re: General login page for all users?
Posted by Rajbir Saini <ra...@yahoo.com>.
Right way to do is create an application with login page and mount it on
the root (/) mount point. Right now there is no root mount point in the
back office application. Once you have the application mounted on root
point you can access without using an application context some thing
like https://erp.mydoamin.com/. If you want to be bit more creating you
can also have icons for all other application on the main page of this
root application similar to the Opentaps. You can also create access to
these icons based on the security permission similar to the OFBiz menu.
Thanks,
Raj

Re: General login page for all users?
Posted by Mandeep Sidhu <ma...@gmail.com>.
For all the backend applications the single sign on file is located at the
below location.
framework/common/webcommon/login.ftl
If you want to include this sign on in any of your apps all you need to do
is include the below controller entry in your apps *controller.xml *file
which is mostly located under the WEB-INF directory for e.g.
applications/marketing/webapp/marketing/WEB-INF/controller.xml
#Entry for single sign on in any controller.xml
<include
location="component://common/webcommon/WEB-INF/common-controller.xml"/>

That's extremely helpful for ecommerce login, thank you. But I am looking to
do this for the back-end applications login.

Re: General login page for all users?
Posted by apf <al...@gmail.com>.
Hi, as promised I'm sharing my solution. It's based on tips here, thanks. I
made an Ofbiz application that adds a central login page for all users, and
displays Icons of the applications they can access.
Here's the app (see the screenshot for results):
www.github.com/aparedesflores/ofbiz-central-login
Thanks for all the tips, feel free to contribute and improve it.
Cheers,
AP

Re: General login page for all users?

There are two different login flows actually. Single sign on is for all
back end applications (AR/AP/Accounting/Catalog etc.). For the front end
store the login is handled in the ecommerce app located at
speciapurpose/ecommerce/webapp/ecommerce/login.ftl
To change the front end store's look and feel you'll have to change files
under ecommerce app.

Re: General login page for all users?

I have a fresh Ofbiz install, no hot-deploy apps. I'm not looking to change
the looks, just get the "single sign on" working as you said. If it's well
implemented, how can I setup a page for all users to login from there
successfully? Thanks.

Re: General login page for all users?
Posted by Mandeep Sidhu <ma...@gmail.com>.
I think single sign on is well implemented in ofbiz. If you got a
hot-deploy app, don't add an entry to handle login. The controller will
automatically handle it.
If you want to customize the login page to give a look and feel of your
org, which I did as well you need to modify the file at the following
location.
framework\common\webcommon\login.ftl
All the users will be presented with this login page then.
Hope this helps.

I can't seem to find info on how to go about creating a custom "home" page or
login form. Experienced web developer here, but new to Ofbiz. Point me in
the right direction? Google/archives aren't showing anything about this
topic.

A common solution is to create a custom "home" page that all users log into.

Re: General login page for all users?
Posted by apf <al...@gmail.com>.
Thanks for clarifying that. I'd be more than glad to share my solution, once
I come up with one...
So if I understood correctly, Ofbiz login process requires a user to go to
the specific URL of the application they have access to, otherwise they
can't log in. And there is no common login page that exists, which can send
the user to the correct URL after logging in, or display a page which shows
the apps the have access to.

Alex,
Opentaps is not OFBiz, OFBiz is not Opentaps. If the were one and the same
the login would be the same.
Access to applications is determined by the permissions a user has.
Unfortunately, there is not one application that will serve a a placeholder
for login and logout. I you feel up to it, please share your solution.

Hi, thanks for the reply. I'm aware those links exist, but my question is if
there is a page that allows all users to login regardless of what
applications they have access to? And once logged in, show them only the
apps they have access to? This is the login process for Opentaps, just
wondering how to achieve this in Ofbiz.
Kind Regards,
AP

Hi Alex,
The main page /webtools/control/m/ain is intended to access the webtools
of OFBiz. All the other applications under the OFBiz umbrella can be
accessed through /<appname>/control/main, e.g. /catalog/control/main, and
share the same login screen.
