1. Login to HCM > navigate to Learning Administration >
2. Go to System Administration > Application Administration > Sites > Add New >
3. Create a Site ID that contains a Special Character (such as umlaut characters ä , ö , ü , ß , é or *, @, | ) and Save >
4. Try to Log in to the External Site or Register a new User on the site and the error appears.

This is caused by special characters in the Site ID.

Create a new Site ID with no special characters therefore eliminating the possibility of the error occurring.
