I can't answer for 7.5 specifically, but the format I use for 7.1.0 (and 7.6.03) is http://webServerName/contextPath/shared/login.jsp?goto=/contextPath/forms/ARSystemServer/FormName
i.e. http://remedyweb/arsys/shared/login.jsp?goto=/arsys/forms/arsprod/MyCustomForm I don't believe the goto works with the older ViewFormServlet format of a url. I think it needs to be the newer forms/server/formname style.

Page 63, example 2 in the 7.5 Mid Tier Guide shows: http://webServerName/contextPath/shared/customLoginFile.jsp?goto=URL=&server=ARSystemServer (I think the "=" after URL is a typo that should be omitted.) But the default login page loads, and then the Home Page loads after login. It's as though all the information is lost or overwritten. 1. I disabled mod_rewrite on apache to make sure that's not the problem. 2. The "goto" url works when posted in the browser after I'm logged in. 3. The custom login page works when I go directly to it; I can log in to the Home Page from there. Any ideas?
