APM SSO Issue
The scenario is this:
Application server "Liferay" F5 Big-IP APM v11.4.0
When using the weblogin, we are to authenticate successfully, but the server app weblogin page remains open and displayed in the weblogin page. the sso method using is "http form"
I’m seeking assistance with trouble shooting tips and/or assistance from anyone that has successfully deployed Share Plus using F5 as a user access gateway
kind regards

Hi Bakir_abdel,
Turn up your APM SSO log level from notice to debug to see additional information on why the SSO is failing. More than likely there is a element in the HTTP form that is not being represented in the APM forms SSO configuration.
A good way to troubleshoot this is to install the free version of HTTPWatch and determine what data is being POSTed to the HTTP form action page and ensure the same variables are configured in the APM form SSO configuration.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
So it looks like your start URI is a little to specific. The attributes you have included in the start URI need to be sanitized for what is user specific and what is page specific.
Do most of your pages us the following URL: /web/intranet/connexion?
If so, you may want to use the forms - client initiated SSO method instead. This is very useful in java applications that all use the same base url and the attributes included in the URL to define what the page is can vary in location/order.
