Description Venkata Siva Teja Areti 2020-04-21 19:04:56 UTC
Description of problem:

This is extended version for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1814898. 

If there are multiple IDPs configured with OAuth server, to authenticate the user, IDPs are checked in the order in which they are configured. For some reason, if the time to get a response from some of these IDP together is more than 60s, user login would fail even though user can be authenticated using an IDP that comes after these faulty IDPs.

Creating a BZ to track this even though we may not be able to fix it completely.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.3

How reproducible:
Happened in the above referenced BZ. I think this can be reproduced reliably if there are multiple faulty IDPs.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create IDPs that will not send a response within 60s
2. create htpasswd IDP
3. Try to login as the user.

Actual results:
User fails to login with some server error

Expected results:
User login succeeds

Adding UpcomingSprint as this needs some arch discussions.
