The Problem:
The IONIC-Android application refuses a redirect to http://localhost/ sent from an SSO-site.
And crashes with the following error:
The Environment:
- Ionic 3 Angular
- Android 9.x
Ionic Info:
Ionic:
ionic (Ionic CLI) : 4.12.0
Ionic Framework : ionic-angular 3.9.2
@ionic/app-scripts : 3.2.3
Cordova:
cordova (Cordova CLI) : 9.0.0 (cordova-lib@9.0.1)
Cordova Platforms : android 8.1.0
Cordova Plugins : cordova-plugin-ionic-keyboard 2.1.3, cordova-plugin-ionic-webview 4.1.3, (and 10 other plugins)
System:
Android SDK Tools : 26.1.1
NodeJS : v10.16.0
npm : 6.10.0
OS : Windows 10
What I do:
Clicking on a specific button links you to an SSO-AUthority site (directly inside the app)
Here the user authorizes itself with its SSO-Credentials. On success the site redirects back
to it's calling origin, which is in my case the app, so http://localhost/#access_token=...
This leads the application to crash with the shown error.
I've tried updating several plugins like the web view and the in app browser with no change.
What can I do?:
I am not sure whether I am doing this right anyway, or if there is a much better way. I tried to get something better than this error message, but there is no detailed error message or any further error when I look at this in Chrome's device debugging mode.
I searched my ass off on this topic, but so far found nothing that helped me in any way. I always end up with the exact same error.
