One-Click Login into the Oracle Content Server 11g

Are you tired of constantly needing to type in your Login information into the Oracle Content Server (11g) each time you try to open it in a new browser window?

We have a solution for you!

The main problem on the login page is that those two html input tags for the User Name and Password fields have the attribute autocomplete set to off.  This forces any browser to behave accordingly and not allow any auto-fill like functionality for these two fields. This gets annoying, especially if you do a lot of development and have to restart your content server every so often.

You can resolve this problem by creating a bookmark to the following address:

http://hostname:port/cs/login/j_security_check?j_character_encoding=UTF-8&j_username=your_username&j_password=your_password

Here is an example URL:

http://devucm11g:16200/cs/login/j_security_check?j_character_encoding=UTF-8&j_username=weblogic&j_password=welcome1

Where:

• hostname = devucm11g
• port = 16200
• your_username = weblogic
• your_password = welcome1

Now, each time you click such bookmark you would automatically be logged in and forwarded to your landing page on the Content Server.

Hint: you can choose to create a bookmark or set this as your homepage.

Note: it goes without saying that you should never do anything like this for any production environment.
