Use the following procedures to verify that your Enterprise Portal 6.0 installation is operating correctly.
Running Enterprise Portal Interface
After installing Enterprise Portal, start Enterprise Portal by clicking on the link on the last installer window, or for a typical or custom installation, you can also start Portal Interface using the following URL, substituting your host name, domain, and port number:
http://$HOSTNAME.$PORTALDOMAIN:port/onepage/index.jsp
The default port for accessing the Portal is 8080. If,
however, EAServer ports must be changed because of port conflicts,
the actual port may be different. The HTML log on the final status
panel of the installer contains the URL with the correct port number
for accessing Enterprise Portal.
For example, if your machine name is “labnt”, your portal domain is sybase.com, and your port number is 8080, you enter:
http://labnt.sybase.com:8080/onepage/index.jsp
This brings up the portal “Guest” page in a browser window. It may take a few moments to load the first time, as the Enterprise Portal application is compiled.
Click Help, then select About Enterprise Portal. The title specifies the Enterprise Portal version. Click Close Window when finished.
Click Join Now on the guest page to create your portal account. The self-registration window appears.
When you self-register in Portal Interface, use a different
username and password for different portal co-brands.
