Is there any solution at the horizon?
I have "Register" and "Passwort forgotten" links from applications to the appropriate pages of my PWM installation - all of them are showing the "too many redirects" error. When I reload the page in the browser it loads with the same URL. But how to explain that to users?
How can this be solved?
I am experiencing this issue any time I send my PWM URL to anyone. I have to instruct them to type the URL or copy and paste it into their browser, because they get the "too_many_redirects" error if they try to access the page by clicking the link.
As I can see "too many redirects" caused because pwm-cookies are not set but blocked by browsers. We solved this by setting "Sticky Session Verification" parameter from "Enabled" to "Enabled - And pre-load browser cache" in Settings ⇨ Security ⇨ Web Security ⇨ Sticky Session Verification
