MF_E_NET_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS
MF_E_NET_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS means the client followed redirects until it reached its safety limit. This usually exposes a loop between origin, CDN, reverse proxy, protocol rollover, or authentication gateway.
What to check
- Capture every redirect target and compare host, scheme, path, and query string.
- Check reverse-proxy and CDN rules for a loop between canonical and alternate endpoints.
- Verify that authentication or proxy policy does not redirect unauthenticated clients back to the original URL.
