Modify Maximo login page text and images with MaxMessages

Over the years, I have seen many Maximo instances where the client changes the login page to show whether it is a production environment or a test environment by customizing the login.jsp page as need.  Some even add their own images such as their company logo.  Well, in Maximo 7, you no longer have to modify the login.jsp file if you don’t want to.  You can manage the text on the login page with MaxMessages.

    good one. I was taught to edit messages from Application Designer, but DB Config is much better ;)

    how do I get a message page up in the first place – all I get is a windows or firefox log on box requesting user and password?

      You have to go into Database Configuration module. This is available in Maximo 7 only.

    Hi,

    I copied company logo to directory and renamed it to match existing Tivoli image. I rebuilt EAR and deployed, but Tivoli logo still exists… Is there any other step? Maximo 7.1.1.4

    Thanks,

      You probably have to clear your browser cache.

      • bcondreay

        That was the issue!!

        Thanks!

    How exactly do you rebuild the EAR files? Is it in Maximo, Websphere, what? Step by Step would be great! Thanks!

    How to change the “IBM” logo image inside TSRM top menu to another image ?

  • kevwertz

    This tip is great, but what if I want to have the environment name on all the pages? Is there a maxmessage value that controls the display of the application name in the top left corner? I was thinking I could have something like “Work Order Tracking —-TRAINING ENVIRONMENT”

    • http://interprosoft.com Chon

      I don’t think there is one. But you could change the background image of the top panel to something else and that image could have embedded text to say its a testing environment
