Overview

The user portal version 3 places all the self-service application in one place and allows the customer to decide what pages to make available to users and how those pages are to be used. This can replace the current changepin , resetpin and proxy applications.

The following applications are available.


  • Change PIN
  • Reset PIN (The ResetPIN needs to be enabled on the Swivel Administration console). See also ResetPIN How To Guide
  • Provision a Mobile device
  • Sync a Token


Prerequisites

For v4, see User Portal Administration Guide and User Portal User Guide:

Swivel v3.9.5 to v3.11.5.

Appliance v2.0.16 onwards.

QR Code Provision Provisioning 3.10.4 onwards.

Token See link for Token prerequisites.

Swivel appliance with user portal see Downloads.

Upgrading User Portal

The combined appliance patch gives the option to uninstall previous versions of the User Portal.

To manually remove it, backup the old user Portal, then with Tomcat running remove the /usr/local/tomcat/webapps2/userportal.war or whatever it has been called, this should remove the userportal folder. If using WinSCP refresh the folder to see if it has been removed.


User Portal Installation

If the User Portal is not installed on a Swivel appliance, it can be installed on an appliance running Swivel 3.9.1 onwards. WinSCP can be used to install this, see WinSCP How To Guide.

Copy the userportal.war file to /usr/local/tomcat/webapps2


User Portal Configuration

Config files are located in: /home/swivel/.swivel/user-portal/ (or .swiveluser-portal on some versions)


settings.properties

Communication settings for a local Swivel instance. Restart Tomcat after making any changes.

 pinsafessl=false
 pinsafeserver=127.0.0.1
 pinsafecontext=pinsafe
 pinsafesecret=secret
 pinsafeport=8181
 imagessl=true
 imageserver=YourSwivelURL.com
 imagecontext=proxy
 imageport=8443


Communication settings for a remote Swivel instance. Restart Tomcat after making any changes.

 pinsafessl=false
 pinsafeserver=RemoteSwivelIP or VIP
 pinsafecontext=pinsafe
 pinsafesecret=secret
 pinsafeport=8080
 imagessl=true
 imageserver=YourSwivelURL.com
 imagecontext=proxy
 imageport=8443


portalconfig.properties

Controls the behavious of changePIN. Restart Tomcat after making any changes.

 #valid settings: directEntry turingEntry pinpadEntry
 changepin.page=turingEntry

Language files

These are located in /usr/local/tomcat/webapps2/userportal/WEB-INF/classes


messages_en.properties

This file contains the text and language which may be customised


User Portal Menu options

The options available to portal users can be edited to remove menus that are not required. Edit the file /usr/local/apache-tomcat/webapps2/userportal/WEB-INF/view/template/leftpanel.jsp

To remove an item, add at the start '<!-- ' and at the end of the line, add ' -->' example

  <!-- <li><a href="${changePINUrl}"><spring:message code = "changepin.title" /></a></li> -->

The following removes the ChangePIN link

   <li><a href="${mobileProvisioningUrl}"><spring:message code = "mobile_provisioning.title" /></a></li>
   <li><a href="${selfResetUrl}" onclick="return confirmDialog(event);"><spring:message code = "reset.title" /></a></li>
   <!-- <li><a href="${changePINUrl}"><spring:message code = "changepin.title" /></a></li> -->
   <li><a href="${tokenManagementUrl}"><spring:message code = "tokenmanagement.title" /></a></li>

Additional Configuration options

Creating a URL redirect from the root level

See Redirect link


Using 443 instead of 8443

See How to run PINsafe on non-default ports


You can change the User Portal logo by navigating to /usr/local/tomcat/webapps2/userportal/img and there is an image called swivel-logo.png (Not to be mistaken for swivel_logo.png). Import the required image and rename it to swivel-logo.png.


Known Issues

The User Portal ONLY supports the UTF-8 Character Code Set.

Troubleshooting

A Reset code could not be requested.

The Swivel server does not allow Account Resets

The ResetPIN needs to be enabled on the Swivel Administration console.


Changes to xml files do not take effect

Cached files

You may find you need to clear the cached compiled files for User Portal before the new settings will take effect. You can find these in /usr/local/tomcat/work/Catalina-proxy/localhost/userportal. Delete the contents of this folder only when Tomcat is stopped.

This folder will be automatically re-created the next time it is required, so it is safe to delete.


File locations

Ensure the correct locations are being edited: Config files will be stored in ~/.swivelportal/conf or as stated by stated in env variable SWIVEL_PORTAL_HOME or web.xml “portalHome"

Editing the configuration files under <path to Tomcat>\webapps2\userportal\WEB-INF (Example: C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps2\userportal\WEB-INF) will not be used.


Error Messages

There was an error please check your username and pin code if the problem persists contact your systems administrator.

Contact the Administrator to see verify the error. This error should be logged on the Swivel server that the User Portal uses.


Change PIN failed for user: graham, error: The use of a static password is mandatory

In the Swivel log viewer
