HCL Connections – Orient Me “Loop”

After deploying Orient Me, every try to open the new Orient Me homepage would result in a "loop", the user was being redirected from the Orient Me (/social) page to the Homepage application (/homepage) and back again to the Orient Me page. The root cause for the problem was not a bug or an error in the HCL Connections code, but rather the configuration of the HCL Connections Blue Stack and other components in the IT landscape of this environment.
