Issue

  • Once the session expires, users should redirect to the custom page

  • Liferay DXP 7.2
  • Liferay DXP 7.3

Resolution

  • To redirect the user to any page on session expire, the below session timeout redirect property should be set to true and to redirect to the particular page the company default home property should have the valid URL in portal-ext.properties.

        # Set this to true if the user is redirected to the default page when the
        # session expires.

        #
        session.timeout.redirect.on.expire=false
    #
        # This sets the default home URL of the portal.
