I am losing my mind over this, I enabled this setting because I was having issues with sites not making links with https. I enabled it, ran into issues, so I disabled and rebooted, since then I have not been able to sign in from my broswer, I have however been able to sign in Incognito and on my phone. I have rebooted, I have reset cookies and storage on the browser, and not matter what I do I cannot get it to work. I get a session created because I'll get this error too: Creation of a session is prohibited when a session is active. But cannot get past the login screen.

I am using Cloudflare Tunnels and the Traefik proxy. I have my SSL set to Full, and like I said, it was working before, and still does on every other browser I've tried.

TL;DR
Enabled _APP_OPTIONS_FORCE_HTTPS temporarily which caused TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS issue. Problem occurs in one browser despite SSL being set to Full. Offered help for debugging with more information.

I am not using Coolify and my SSL is set to Full already. Keep in mind that this only happens in one browser for some reason.

just proves everyone's setup can be different, and yet they can face the same issue. often times its just a bit of mis understanding where the fault in the setup is, especially given how many layers we how nowadays between the user's request and to the point it reaches the actual server

happy to help you debug if you can share more info
