Android-Chrome Redirects URL to many times but Desktop Chrome and other Browsers do not












0














I just posted a URL and tested viewing it I noticed that in Chrome on Android it redirects too many times to the following URL. I tried clearing my cookies and browsing data but it still did the same thing. I figure it is a site setting I need to change. The site is hosted on Google Cloud, it is a Confluence site being proxied by a NGinX server running inside the same VM.



Test Cases:




  • Navigate to "Test URL" from Android-Chrome and get Redirected to "Bad URL" --> Why?/How To Fix?

  • Request "Desktop Site" on Android-Chrome and navigate to "Test URL" and get expected URL

  • Navigate to "Test URL" via Android-Firefox and get expected URL

  • Navigate to "Test URL" on Chrome/FireFox/Edge/IE (Any Browser) on Desktop PC (Win10) and get expected URL!

Another Test URL:

Bad URL: https://www.freesoftwareservers.com/#content/view/327684



Note: Another user has confirmed that this is a specific issue with Android Chrome but not with Android Firefox or desktop Chrome. Even with Android Chrome when requesting desktop version it works!
