SPA - unable to complete authentication from another route

[jbockle]

I have a SPA with Aurelia, and configured it with MSAL.

When I load app from the base route http://localhost:8080 it authenticates user, then redirects to homepage and am able to get the logged in User and display it on navbar.

When I load from another route, like http://localhost:8080/#/counter, it authenticates user, redirecters to counter page, but getUser() returns null.

Is there something I'm missing that would prevent authentication from completing on a different route?

if loginInProgress I force a page reload and all is fine, not sure why that step is needed

I couldn't get the hashtag to work in my Azure Angular 5 app either. I had to take out the useHash: true inside my app-routing.module.ts file. RouterModule.forRoot should define useHash as false by default.

@dougmolineux There is an issue with angular library itself for hashbang urls. angular/angular#16710
We are currently waiting on them to fix it. If it doesn't get fix by angular team, we will provide a workaround.

Closing this issue as the original issue seems to be resolved.

I still have this problem when using useHash: true. Seemingly this issue cannot fix in angular 6 and more :(
