Oracle portal login | user-sessions

Oracle portal login | user-sessions
Tue, 25 Mar 2008 10:14:15 +010
Working as an admin on a site using the oracle portal platform I need to  
have different logged-in user sessions open at the same time. I need my  
admin login, and in a different window another user (test). This works in  
IE - opening a new browser instance doesn't keep me logget in, making it  
possible to open a new user-session. In Opera 9.50, logging out does so in  
all windows..

Solutions in keeping these sessions separate? Thanks

I don't think this is possible in Opera. If you really need this, you  
would have to install several copies of Opera to be able to start with  
completely separate sessions.

No need to install a 2nd time here. Just copy the profile folder to a  
different location and start Opera with the

"path to\opera.exe"  /settings "path to\Opera6.ini"

switch with the path to the "new" ini works here, too.

That's incomplete advice I'm afraid. If you copy the profile directory you  
also need to edit the file paths in the copied file opera6.ini. Otherwise  
it will keep using user data from the old location. I think installing a  
second time is easier for most people.

Uuups, sorry! I forgot to mention that.

Yes.
