How to make a page the default landing page

[giasqui]

Hi,

following this topics:

https://docs.alfresco.com/content-services/latest/tutorial/share/pages/#adding-a-new-surf-page-to-sh... 

and 

https://docs.alfresco.com/content-services/latest/tutorial/share/pages/#making-the-new-page-the-defa... 

I would like to change de default landing page after login. 

Well, if i tightly follow the topics and start the solution with docker (run.bat build_start), than it works as expected! 

While if I create the amps and deploy it to my test environment than, the redirect does not works and, after the login I always see the user dashboard.

May you please help? 

Please notice that I can see the package deployed on "Module Deployment" console at ../share/service/modules/deploy.

Thanks a lot.

Kind regards.

Thanks @roberto_gamiz but it does not works for me... and I don't know why.

Did you test it on a clean installation? Have you got deployed more customizations on your installation?

Regards!!

Let me do a recap: the project above is a customization of the following https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-sdk-samples/tree/alfresco-51/all-in-one/add-surf-dashlet-and-pa... that is official and mentioned here https://docs.alfresco.com/content-services/latest/develop/share-ext-points/surf-pages/#sample-code.

Now, also if I use these official project it works on docker and doesn't works on my installation. Moreover I've installed an older version of alfresco on my pc in order to have a fresh new installation and the simple deploy of the add-surf-dashlet-and-page-share-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar works.

So the scenarios are these:

Alfresco 5.2.f on my pc - it works these are the modules deployed

Alfresco v23.3 on a server - it does not works these are the modules deployed (here you can't see add-surf-dashlet-and-page-share module because I've undeployed it)

Alfresco 25.2 on docker with sdk - it works these are the modules deployed

This is the only custom related to share so I hope that there isn't an interference form other modules.

The same things happens on prod environment where i have:

Alfresco v23.3 on PROD server 

these are the modules deployed (here you can see add-surf-dashlet-and-page-share)

I'm going crazy... 🙂

Hello,

What is content-tutorial-edodtosgd-share?  Could it be interfering? Could you undeploy it and try again?

Regards

content-tutorial-edodtosgd-share is a customization of this: https://ecmarchitect.com/alfresco-developer-series-tutorials/content/tutorial/tutorial.html

I have tested the landing page also without it and the issue is always the same so about me it does not interfere.

How can I debug it?

[giasqui]

I did another test on another environment with alfresco 23.4 on windows and it does not works.

So in order to recap the scenario is this:

Alfresco 5.2.f on my pc with windows - it works

Alfresco v23.3 on TEST env01 server - it does not works

Alfresco v23.3 on PROD env01 server - it does not works

Alfresco 25.2 on docker with sdk - it works

Alfresco v23.4 on TEST env02 server - it does not works

It could be something related to v23.x?

Any idea?

Does anyone have the same problem?

There is a way to debug?

My way to do this is to create a new sitepreset and set a full dashboard xml preset fot that new site preset for example "sitepippo" under the file in the path "web-extension/site-data/presets/sitepippo-presets.xml"

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<presets>

	<preset id="sitepippo">
