Portal 6.3 - Gateway Issue Weird Behavior!

When I get to my desktop by going direct into the portal server, I have a channel that has a list of reports. After I select a report, it refreshes the desktop and allows you to retrieve the report via a button press. This is how it is supposed to work.

If I access the desktop via the gateway (rewriter not enabled), when I click on a report from the list, the page refreshes put the only thing in the browser window is that one channel now instead of the entire desktop!

I checked out the access log of the portal server and these are the responses for the calls when I click on the report:

Accessed without the gateway:

10.25.41.220 - - [13/Apr/2005:13:15:04 -0400] "GET /portal/dt?nextPage=&selectedCtrl=8Sel&reportId=109&storeVal=&t oggle=true&reportDisabled=&isFms=false&8Sel=109 HTTP/1.1" 200 43553

Accessed via the gateway:

192.168.247.42 - - [13/Apr/2005:13:16:21 -0400] "GET /portal/dt?action=content&provider=cvsVendorMicrostrategyReports&last=f alse?nextPage=&selectedCtrl=8Sel&reportId=109&storeVal=&toggle=t rue&reportDisabled=&isFms=false&8Sel=109 HTTP/1.0" 200 21901

When accesed via the gateway, it is adding:

action=content&provider=cvsVendorMicrostrategyReports&last=false

Why would it do this? This application is in production in our portal 6.0 environment and working fine via the gateway. We are in the process of creating a 6.3 infrastructure and this is where the problem is.

I figured out what was causing this behavior. By having the "Enable Masking" feature turned on for the rewriter tab of the gateway.When I disabled it, our application acted as expected. I will have to follow up with Sun now to see if this is a bug.
