I know that /auth is mapped to the servlet descriptor of jboss-web-deployer and "/portal/default" is the portal name and its page. What is the last "/default"? | http://docs.jboss.com/jbportal/v2.6.2/referenceGuide/html/urls.html "tulumvinh" wrote : | 2. The login form action is "j_security_check". When this request is sent to the server side and processed by PortalServlet, what happens after that? | The reference guide (http://docs.jboss.com/jbportal/v2.6.2/referenceGuide/html/) might contain the information that you need. Without context of what you're trying to achieve, it's difficult to answer your query. Plus, an explanation of Portal internals are outside of the scope of this forum. One could make a point that such an overview should be more prominent in the documentation and, if you feel strongly about it, please open a JIRA task for it. Ultimately, though, the source is the best documentation for the internal behavior of Portal. If you need more help figuring things out, you might want to consider buying consulting and/or support from us...
