NimbostratusAPM - logon page and page prediction?
Hello,
As I guess many are aware, different browsers try to do smart things, like speed up the experience by page prediction.
Now I have some users complaining that they are not able to login through a APM access profile with a login page. The users in question are using Chrome browser and then they are accessing they get the message "Your session could not be established" and the URL stands to: . If they follow the link to start a new session , they are presented with the same error and URL in browser.
It seems as this is a unforeseen issue with page prediction, as the problem is solved when disabling this feature in the browser. When the browser predicts that the user should go directly to /my.policy without a MRHsession, that clearly breaks the policy.
Now, this is not a big deal for machines which can be controlled by company policies, but for other non-controlled devices it is a pain in the ass to instruct users on how to disable page prediction.
Is there a way to instruct browsers not to use page prediction on a certain site? Or are there any other good ways to implement a workaround in this scenario?

In this thread, I also provided this code to detect chrome Prefetch
when ACCESS_SESSION_STARTED { if {[HTTP::header Purpose] equals "prefetch"} { ACCESS::respond 403 -version "1.1" noserver "Connection" "Close" ACCESS::session remove return } }
