    Hi,

    I am new to liferay and I would like to know how can I use ParameterAutoLogin.java. If I append parameterautologinlogin and parameterautologinpassword to the request url, will it call the ParameterAutologin.java and the user is logged in automatically?

    I would be thankful if I get the responses quickly.

    Regards,
    Pratima

      yes
      Make sure your portal-ext.properties has this class specified in auto.login.hooks
      
auto.login.hooks=com.liferay.portal.security.auth.CASAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.NtlmAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.OpenIdAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.OpenSSOAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.RememberMeAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.SiteMinderAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.ParameterAutoLogin


      But it has to parameterAutoLoginLogin and parameterAutoLoginPassword
      Its case sensitive.

      Also plz check what is company.security.auth.type in your portal.properties, if its emailaddress you have to pass emailaddress as parameterAutoLoginLogin parameter, better u change it to screenname in the property and pass screenname instead

      Thanks Sandeep,

      However, the ParameterAutoLogin is not getting called. Below are the steps that I am doing.

      1. I have mentioned the auto login hook property in portal-ext.properties


      2. In my struts portlet on an action I prepare a URL with c/portal/login and append the parameters parameterAutoLoginLogin and parameterAutoLoginPassword and open a new window with this URL.

      3. But my parameter auto login is not called.

      could you please tell me where am I doing a mistake.?

      Hi,

      It works fine for me.

      I mentioned following in portal-ext.properties, note have added ParameterAutoLogin at the end

      auto.login.hooks=com.liferay.portal.security.auth.CASAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.NtlmAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.OpenIdAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.OpenSSOAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.RememberMeAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.SiteMinderAutoLogin,com.liferay.portal.security.auth.ParameterAutoLogin


      Restarted the server and hit the following url

      http://localhost:8080/web/guest?parameterAutoLoginLogin=test@liferay.com&parameterAutoLoginPassword=test

      And i was logged in automatically.

      Hey Sandeep,
      Thanks a ton. Have been looking for it for quite some time. Works amazingly. Though the user name and pass is exposed on the next screen. Can we mask the same??

      For people using Liferay 6.1.X
      Read this thread:
      AutoLogin not working in 6.1 GA2

      Where recommend to put:
      live.users.enabled=false
      To avoid a bug.

      Hi,

      Using 6.1.1 CE

      I have default landing page /web/guest/home set for the portal.

      Now I am using Parameter Auto login....I want to use a different landing page (web/guest/parampage) for this.

      So basically have two landing pages..one for the normal user who signs in.....and one for the user who are signed in using parameter parameters.

      How can this be done?
