Portal: Installing the Agent Filter for the Deployed Application on Agent for WebLogic Server/Portal 10

The instructional information that follows consists of the most important information required for the configuration of the web.xml file. For a more thorough explanation, see Installing the Agent Filter for the WebLogic Server/Portal 10 Agent.

As consistent with the rest of this appendix, this section specifies the sample portal as the application whose deployment descriptor is modified.

The following is a conceivable location for the web.xml file for the sample portal:

/usr/local/bea/wlserver_10.0/samples/portal/portalApp/groupspaceSampleWeb/WEB-INF

To Install the Agent Filter for the Deployed Application Specifically for WebLogic Portal 10

1. Edit the application's web.xml descriptor by adding the <filter> elements.

   Add the <filter>, <filter-mapping>, and <dispatcher> elements as the first filter element in the web.xml descriptor. For example:

   <web-app> ... <filter> <filter-name>Agent</filter-name> <filter-class>com.sun.identity.agents.filter.AmAgentFilter</filter-class> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>Agent</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher> <dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher> <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher> <dispatcher>ERROR</dispatcher> </filter-mapping> ... </web-app>

   Important: Make sure that this filter element is the first element in the descriptor.
