Always redirected to homepage post authentication - Expressjs - express-openid-connect

Help
1

I have successfully set-up Auth0 inside an Expressjs based site using express-openid-connect. I have also set “Allowed Callback URLs” and “Allowed Logout URLs” for the relevant application via the dashboard.

From what I understand “Allowed Callback URLs” is the list of URL to which Auth0 will send a user after they have successfully authenticated. I have only one URL configured here for example:

http://localhost:3000/profile

However, after successful authentication, I am always send to the landing page aka http://localhost:3000. If I for example try to directly access http://localhost:3000/profile, I am sent to the universal login page but, post authentication, I am again returned to http://localhost:3000

I have also added and entry such as the following to the config object in app.js

...
redirectUriPath: "/profile",
...

This unfortunately still yields the same end result. Has anyone else run into this same problem? Is there some piece of configuration that I am missing?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Having the exact same issue.

I looked at the redirect_uri GET parameter that is passed to the https://dev-myproject.auth0.com/login page (where you can select an authentication method) and indeed, the value of the redirectUriPath configuration setting is being passed along properly (&redirect_uri=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8000%2Fuser).

After successful authentication however I am redirected to http://localhost:8000, not http://localhost:8000/user. The value of the redirect_uri parameter appears to be disregarded.

Can anyone help?
