After starting the HTML5 client, you will end up on an URL such as: https://agent2.example.com:1009/main/agent If you, say, bookmark this page and later returns to it, you will currently get the message: Please visit the login server instead. One idea is to improve this by providing a link to the master machine. Unfortunately, this is very difficult: We do not have that hostname. We have /vsmagent/master_hostname, but that's an internal IP/name. We would rather need something like /vsmagent/agent_hostname of the master machine, but that parameter might not be configured if the master machine is not running an agent as well. Also, there's a possibility that you have a proxy or firewall between the browser and the TL servers. This would make it impossible to deduce the name of the master machine. So currently, I'm leaning towards WONTFIX for this bug.
I think Pierre's suggestion sounds like a good solution, to have a configurable parameter that contains the url to the login page which the administrator can set. Such a solution would be useful for bug 4721 as well.
Perhaps it is possible to pass the URL to the master - the same URL that was used for the initial login - in a hidden variable? That would be the best solution; this would handle proxies/firewalls etc as well.

Actually, I believe we can handle this by including the original login URL in a CGI parameter when redirecting to the agent: --- templates/main/redirect.tmpl (revision 28169) +++ templates/main/redirect.tmpl (arbetskopia) @@ -70,7 +70,7 @@ </style> <div id="container"> - <form id="redirform" method="post" action="$targetserver/main/agent"> + <form id="redirform" method="post" action="$targetserver/main/agent?loginserver=https://orginal-login-server.example.com">
Fixed with r28466, r28468, and r28469. Solved using the configuration paramater method. r28466 - added the functionality r28468 - updated comments in webaccess.hconf r28469 - documentation

However, the redirect page is very ugly compared to redirect page used in #4721. Could this layout be shared ?

Looks better in general, even the main page got affected. However, when an error string is displayed over the login form, the size is changed in a strange way.

There are still some issues with the change of stylesheet. - Remove 10% top margin - Respect a max width of form and scale in height - Center h and v

Everything looks good now with tlwebaccess pages, however there is some issue with the width of "Your session has ended." page from noVnc, which has a strange width and not centered horizontally.

The display of "Download Server Certificate" link, offsets the ThinLinc logo on the login form. Making the ui very unbalanced.
