Kentico 13 Admin site Azure App Gateway setup

Matthew Butler asked on October 27, 2022 17:59

I'm currently in the process of setting up the Admin site behind an app gateway.

How do you set it up to work with the Forwarded details, as currenlty redirecting to the azurewebsites.net domain when I try and login.

Thanks

I would say that the idea of the gateway is similar to a proxy, right? If yes, then I would follow documentation.

Yes, that is the approach I followed. It appears I have the same issues as

https://devnet.kentico.com/questions/invalid-redirect-when-running-kentico-cms-behind-a-proxy-server

The it works if I go directly to /Admin/CMSAdministration.aspx, but going to root redirects to the azurewebsites.net domain

I would say there is something set on Azure - I am not aware of Kentico doing such a redirect.

I assume it the authentication redirect, as accessing it locally does the redirect e.g.

https://admin-dev.testsite.com/ ->

(302) https://admin-dev.testsite.com/admin ->

(302) https://admin-dev.testsite.com/admin/ ->

(302) https://admin-dev.testsite.com/admin/CMSAdministration.aspx ->

https://login.microsoftonline.com...

Test Site

https://admin.testsite.com/ ->

(302) https://admin-dev.testsite.azurewebsites.net/admin ->

You are using some external authentication? If yes, what is set there as the target/authentication URL?

The

Identity provider URL: https://login.microsoftonline.com/..

Allowed audience URIs: https://admin-dev.testsite.com/

The site works fine on azure using custom domains without a proxy. but as soon as you put behind the proxy and remove the custom domain it redirects to the wrong url
