[QA] user login sees confusing permission denied, when URL was copy - pasted

[jnweiger]

Seen with core 10.13.0-alpha.1 (not specific to this version)

• Log in as user admin and create a new user sally

---

• Admin navigates back to the normal file view

---

• Copy paste the current URL into a private browsing session https://oc10122-wnd-231rc2-20230807.jw-qa.owncloud.works/apps/files/?dir=/&fileid=8

---

• When logging in as user sally, a permission denied error appears:

• The error is to be expected, as we get redirected back to the fileid=8, which is a folder private to admin.

Suggested enhancement:

• Add a "[Continue]" button to the error page, that sends the user back to the base url of ownCloud.

Known workaround:

• From the error page, shorten the URL by removing everything after the question mark ?.

@IljaN this should be a nice entry-level job for your new student :-)

A simiar situation happens, when pasting an admin settings url:

Tested with today's https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/owncloud/core/pull/40910.diff

• [x] The redirect works, when owncloud is installed at the web root
• [x] The redirect works, when owncloud is installed in a subfolder
• [x] The redirect works with index.php less install and without.

Would this also fix https://github.com/owncloud/openidconnect/issues/301 ?
