User sees the error "Oops, something went wrong" when trying to access RM Unify in a browser or app
Published Date : 18 Oct 2019   Last Updated : 23 Sep 2022   Content Ref: TEC7027091  





Symptoms

When a user browses to RM Unify or uses an app on their device to access services federated to RM Unify, they see error "Oops, something went wrong". This can be seen when: 

  • on a networked PC, the user is browsing to the RM Unify SSO (single sign-on) URL.
  • on a networked PC or mobile device, the user is opening a Microsoft app such as Microsoft® Teams.
  • on a mobile device, the user is browsing to RM Unify.


Cause

The most likely causes are:

  • The browser has been configured to block, or only partially allow, cookies. RM Unify uses cookies to provide SSO functionality.
  • The browser or app has cached an RM Unify cookie from a previous session and the cookie has since expired, or cannot be decrypted.
  • The networked PC has cached related credentials in Windows Credential Manager, e.g. Microsoft Office.


Requirements

The procedures below will help you check your current configuration and to delete old or expired cookies/credentials from your device. Follow the applicable procedure(s) below, testing RM Unify sign in again after each one.


Procedure

Check your browser is configured to allow cookies

The steps to do this will depend on the type of browser you are using. Given below are some examples:

Chrome browser:

  1. Open Chrome and browse to: chrome://settings/content/cookies?search=cookies.
  2. Under 'Cookies and site data', if you see Blocked then toggle the slider to enable the setting and confirm it now shows 'Allow sites to save and read cookie data (recommended)'.

Note: It is possible to keep the cookie setting as Blocked, but allow cookies for https://[*].rmunify.com under the Allow section. While this enables RM Unify SSO to work, the user will still be unable to access other services such as Microsoft 365, as these also require cookies to be allowed.

Microsoft Edge:

  1. Open Microsoft Edge.
  2. Click 'More...', Settings.
  3. Click 'View advanced settings'.
  4. Ensure that 'don't block cookies' is enabled.
