Applies to:

Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

When trying to browse the website through Remote Satellite Server a blank page or 403 response is shown.

Remote Satellite Server log shows an error:

Changes

The delivery WebCenter Sites environment and Remote Satellite are integrated with OAM and Sites is integrated with LDAP.

Remote Satellite Server pages are protected through OAM.

Note: the documentation assumes only the WebCenter Sites UI needs to be protected and Remote Satellite Server pages are unprotected. It is when Remote Satellite Server pages are protected that this problem occurs.
