Hello All,

After digging through the wide variety of posts here about redirect loops I have exhausted my efforts to solve our redirect loop issue. The logs on the spawned pod do not show any errors (yes debug mode is enabled.) The only difference is we use an ALB ingress which I think is irrelevant as we can access the app. Below is the debug log output from the -hub pod.  
The ALB points to the proxy-public as stated in almost every post I have read, this is using the default ingress from the helm chart with ALB annotations. I have added and removed almost every option imaginable. e.g. in the config.yaml below I have added and removed the baseUrl/defaultUrl without any change to the redirect issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!  
helm chart: 4.3.1  
platform: eks

Can you share the logs, starting from _before_ the singleuser server is started?

This log indicates that JupyterHub correctly added a route to the JupyterHub proxy, telling it to route `/user/testuser` to `http://10.246.13.135:8888` which should be the spawned singluser pod. If the proxy is for some reason ignoring that route it would send `/user/testuser`to the hub, which doesn’t support that endpoint so redirects to `/hub/….` which also doesn’t exist.

Can you share your proxy debug logs too? Ideally there should be something corresponding to the hub’s request to setup the route, and also some logs relating to the user accessing `/user/testuser`

Yeah, here is the logs from the proxy at that time.

But the singleuser server or something else is incorrectly redirecting `/user/testuser/` to `/user/testuser` which ends up going to the hub. Can you turn on debug logs in your singleuser server and share those logs again?

Can you also try setting `NO_PROXY/no_proxy` to disable the proxy for all IPs/hosts? By default`JUPYTERHUB_API_URL=http://hub:8081/hub/api` which doesn’t match

I have NO\_PROXY, no\_proxy config in there, what should the no\_proxy entries for all hosts? Just 0.0.0.0/0,\*? Thanks! I’ll have the logs shortly.

I have this in the config:

```auto
        singleuser:
          defaultUrl: "/lab"
          cmd: ["jupyterhub-singleuser", "--debug"]
          extraEnv:

        hub:
          baseUrl: "/"

            Authenticator:

            NO_PROXY: "jupyterhub.<redacted>,10.0.0.0/8,localhost,127.0.0.1"

```

Deployed that and still seeing the redirect loop.  
Same exact errors as before.  
Logs from the singleuser pod show little to no info after the first initial registration of the endpoint.

What paths are part of the loop? I have not read up, but that is a key question, followed by trying to understand each redirect reason, and concluding what redirect is a misbehavior

The paths that are misbehaving are the /hub/user/testuser/lab gets stuck in a redirect loop.

Sorry to be a pain, but it would be really helpful to see the debug logs for all components, covering the same time period, so we can see which components are (or aren’t) communicating with each other, and at what point.

Are you using the default Z2JH test image (as suggested by the config.yaml in your first post), or your own?

Yes, no other customizations other than catering to our environment, default images for all deployed parts. I can update the logs to the same time period for all of the above again to help debug as I am not seeing something obvious.

What redirected to that path? It isn’t a url that one should access. It should be without /hub to access a user-server.

Logs would show this i think

```

It seems /user/testuser redirected you to /hub/user/testuser.

Is the user server configured to serve everything under URL prefix /hub? Then that is a misconfiguration.

Maybe try without this as well, not sure it doesnt cause trouble

I have figured it out! It was never an issue with the helm chart or application. I had a wrapper (mother chart) on top of the helm chart and bypassed that and it works like a charm. Thanks for all the help and sorry to waste your time!
