Reverse proxy
Hi,

We are using Kentico v5.5.3789. It's been upgraded from v3 (I believe) long time ago. The site has been working fine until we have introduced reverse proxy in the pre-production environment.

The symptom is that, if we tried to login to CMS on IE, it just kept on reloading the same page non-stop.

FF, after entered username & password, it just stayed on the loging page. Had to manually type /cmsdesk/default.aspx into the url. Then, when click on "Switch to Site Manager", it just took you back to the login page again.

The front-end seems to work fine but can't click the link to get out of "preview mode".

Other pages on the front-end using https, which worked fine before having reverse proxy, suddenly, can't load the page, error below.

The page isn't redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept
cookies.

RE:Reverse proxy
Hi,

Are you using extension-less URLs and custom page not found setting? If so, could you please apply the latest hotfix for your version (5.5.30)? Regrettably, there was a redirection bug which occurred under above mentioned settings in special cases.

I hope it will fix the issue and I am sorry for the inconvenience.

Best regards,
Juraj Ondrus
