In Portal for ArcGIS, when a web map is configured with a basemap that is no longer available, the web map does not open, and therefore, users are not able to change the basemap.

Status
Known Limit
After review by the development team, it has been determined that this issue is related to a known limitation with the software that lies outside of Esri's control. The issue's Additional Information section may contain further explanation.
Additional Information
If the basemap is not available we cannot say if it used to be a tile or dynamic service, which changes the way the operational layers are added. For older webmaps we don't even know the spatial reference of the basemap. We cannot always switch to an Esri basemap, because it might not be available or might not fit to all operational layers.
