If your selected portal configuration requires you to explicitly map all Tomcat web contexts (e.g. with some mod_jk configurations), you will need to map the following contexts:

Core Modules

Context

Use

/uPortal

The portal itself

/cas

Bundled CAS server and uPortal's default authentication strategy. This may be removed if your institution is not using CAS or is using a separate CAS server.

/ResourceServingWebapp

Static, versioned UE resources such as javascript, css, and image libraries. This application offers the portal and portlets a common target to ensure the user's browser can make efficient use of local caching.

Portlets

Bookmarks Portlet
