How to create a License page

[javi_123]

 

Hi all,

I need to create a license page as a landing page. As soon as the user logs in, a license page should appear. If they agree with the terms and conditions, then the user should be directed to the home page and if user disagree, then the user should be logged out.

Also, the license page should appear only once if the user has agreed with the terms and conditions.

Do I need to create another flow or just a jsp page for this?

Is there any example to create a flow.xml?

Thanks in advance

Regards

Javi

hey Javi,

 

This post might have the answer you are looking for. It tells you about how to change the landing page to be something else other than home.

Hi Sridevi,

Thanks a lot for you help.

I have finally managed to get it working and i will post it here soon. In case if someone requires this kind of functionality.

There was a lot of work around. It took me more than a day to get it working.

 I'm not sure whether this is the best way to do it but this is what i have done to display the license page:

1: Add a new role e.g. ROLE_LICENSE . Make sure this role is assigned to all  users who need to view the license page.

2: Create two report units,  one report unit is for displaying the license agreement information and another report unit to accept the license agreement. I have attached the report units and this will give you a clear idea what i have done. 

3: Make following changes in  jasperserver-servlet-pro.xml

 <value>ROLE_LICENSE|redirect:/flow.html?_flowId=viewReportFlow&reportUnit=/public/reports/LicensePage&decorate=no</value>

<value>ROLE_ADMINISTRATOR|redirect:/flow.html?_flowId=homeFlow</value>

                <value>ROLE_USER|redirect:/flow.html?_flowId=homeFlow</value>

This will show the license page once a user logs in.....

4: Attached license_accepted.jrxml is calling stored procedure in the report sql. This will remove the ROLE_LICENSE from the user once they have accepted the terms and conditions. Next time when the user log in, the license page wont appear.

Thats all i have done, hope this solves your problem.
