Description

Hi,

I setup my instance a while back without www
For various reasons, recently I switch to www
It all works, except, when I visit /-/admin/actions/runners/1 on www, it redirects me back to my-gitea.com and asks me to login
It is strange because I'm able to see /-/admin/actions/runners

Any ideas?

Maybe something incomplete in this step. Or please provide a reproducible setup with detailed steps.

# app.ini
# DOMAIN = https://my-gitea.com/
# SSH_DOMAIN = https://my-gitea.com/
# ROOT_URL = https://my-gitea.com/
DOMAIN = https://www.my-gitea.com/
SSH_DOMAIN = https://www.my-gitea.com/
ROOT_URL = https://www.my-gitea.com/

These are the only settings I changed for the switch, and this allowed me to login using https://www.my-gitea.com/
But when I try to edit my first runner https://www.my-gitea.com/-/admin/actions/runners/1, it redirects back to https://my-gitea.com to login

I suppose what I'm trying to ask is, what checks are there on /admin/actions/runners/1 to cause the redirect? Because I configured whole gitea to require auth and other pages I'm using work, only this one does not.

Except "ROOT_URL", other values are not right.

But when I try to edit my first runner

Do you mean "click the edit icon" or "submit the form"? What link do you see? Do you mean that:

you can visit https://www.your-gitea.com/-/admin
if you visit https://www.your-gitea.com/-/admin/actions/runners/1 then browser redirects to https://your-gitea.com/user/login without any intermediate responses?

What link do you see? Do you mean that: * you can visit `https://www.your-gitea.com/-/admin` * if you visit `https://www.your-gitea.com/-/admin/actions/runners/1` then browser redirects to `https://your-gitea.com/user/login` without any intermediate responses?

Hmm... I modified what I saw... should I modify further?

Yes all correct, the edit icon here:

But that link is a relative link to current page's URL.

Do you see /-/admin/actions/runners/1 or https://www.your-gitea.com/........ or https://your-gitea.com/..... for its "href"?

No, href is a www.my-gitea.com, anyway after your feedback, I decided to try login on a incognito tab. Now no issues, seems like there is some strong caching headers in /admin/actions/runners/1

Since it is a caching problem somewhere, closing this issue. Thank you very much.
