Error description
Some web application applications in IBM Business Automation Workflow redirect to the login page after you log out. In Single Sign-On configurations, some users might not have (or be aware of) a user ID and password combination and, therefore, are confused when they see this page. PRODUCTS AFFECTED Business Automation Workflow IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) IBM BPM Express IBM BPM Standard IBM BPM Advanced
Local fix
Following the instructions in "Configuring third-party authentication products" (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SS8JB4/com.ibm.w bpm.imuc.doc/topics/tsec_thirdpartyauthentication.html), configure a custom logout page for each web application.
Problem summary
In environments that are configured with Single Sign-On, such as SPNEGO, or redirect to an identity provider, such as User Management Service or any SAML IdP, being redirected to the login page might confuse users who do not have a user ID and password to log in.
Problem conclusion
A fix that modifies the following web applications to redirect you to their main entry point will be included in a future release of Business Automation Workflow: Business Process Rules Performance Admin Process Center Process Portal Heritage Portal Process Admin In non-SSO environments, you will be redirected to the login page. In SSO environments, the fix triggers the authentication flow, which might redirect you to the identity provider.
