Symptom

Environment

SAP SuccessFactors HCM Suite

Reproducing the Issue

  1. User can login in SF successfully.
  2. Try to search anything in Global Search Bar or Proxy user search bar => it will show error "Your session has expired."
  3. Go to people profile page => User will authenticate again and redirect to home page.
  4. Go to Admin Center page => User will logout and redirect to Invalid Login Page.

Cause

This issue occurs because an incorrect logo URL is configured as the Company Logo URL in Company System and Logo Settings, for example:

pmsalesdemo8.successfactors.com/login?company=testdemo
