The logon dialog box reappears when you try to log on to a SharePoint Portal Server 2003 Web site as an unauthorized user
When you try to log on to a Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Service 2003 Web site as an unauthorized user, the logon dialog box reappears.
Note This occurs after every time that you enter your logon information and then press ENTER.
Additionally, you cannot obtain the Reqacc.aspx page to send a request for access to the site owner. This problem occurs after you configure the AlternateHeader page in the Onet.xml file to customize the site definition.
This problem occurs because unauthorized users
do not have permission to execute dynamic content in the AlternateHeader
page. When you try to access the customized site as an unauthorized user, you are redirected to the Reqacc.aspx page. The Reqacc.aspx page executes the AlternateHeader
page. The Reqacc.aspx page contains dynamic content.
To work around this problem, use one of the following
methods:
- Remove the AlternateHeader (MyHeader.aspx) setting that
was configured in the Onet.xml file. The Onet.xml file is in the following location:
%programfiles%\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web
server
extensions\60\TEMPLATE\1033\Site_Definition_Folder\XML
Note If you do this, you may lose the functionality of the AlternateHeader page.
- Remove dynamic content, such as Navigation controls, from
the AlternateHeader page. If you have only static content, such as images and links,
the Reqacc.aspx page loads correctly.
- Remove the following lines from the Reqacc.aspx page.
Note The Reqacc.aspx page is in the following location:
%programfiles%\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server
extensions\60\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\1033
<%
string alternateHeader = SPControl.GetContextWeb(Context).AlternateHeader;
if (alternateHeader == null || alternateHeader == "")
{
%>
<%
}
else
{
Server.Execute(alternateHeader);
}
%>
Note Microsoft does not support modifying the default files, such as the Reqacc.aspx.
Note After you do this, you will be able to see the Reqacc.aspx page. When you click
SendRequest to send an access request to the site owner, the site owner
will receive the e-mail message. However, you will not be redirected to a confirmation page.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
