[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Re: So confused, portal's not making any sense.

[PeterJ]

The whole "why do I need 'portal' twice in my URL?" question was discussed in detail in a topic some time ago. Unfortunately I can't seem to find it - using 'portal' as a search keyword is useless ;-)

Anyway, if I recall correctly, the first 'portal' gets you into the portal container. The second 'portal' distinguishes the request between one for a portal page and something from the CMS ('/portla' vs '/content')

If you really want to let you users use http://hostname:8080/jimmy, then create a jimmy.war containing an index.jsp that redirects to /portal/portal/jimmy. That's what I did for my portal.
