Azure AD SSO setup issue

Hi Team,

I’m configuring Azure SSO (OAuth2) for Rundeck using the official documentation:https://docs.rundeck.com/docs/administration/security/sso/azure-sso.html

I have successfully created an Application Registration in Azure AD and configured the required values in my rundeck-config.properties file.

However, after restarting the Rundeck server, the changes are not taking effect.

When I access: https://rundeck.company.com/

it redirects to: https://rundeck.company.com/user/login

instead of initiating the Azure SSO flow.

Current rundeck-config.properties file Configuration:

# rundeck-config.properties: Azure SSO

rundeck.sso.loginButton.enabled=true

rundeck.sso.loginButton.title=Login with Azure

rundeck.sso.loginButton.url=oauth/azure

rundeck.security.oauth.azure.autoConfigUrl=https://login.microsoftonline.com/<DIRECTORY_TENANT_ID>/v2.0

rundeck.security.oauth.azure.clientId=<CLIENT_ID>

rundeck.security.oauth.azure.clientSecret=<SECRET_VALUE>

rundeck.security.syncOauthUser=true

# Azure scopes

rundeck.security.oauth.azure.scope=openid email profile https://graph.microsoft.com/GroupMember.Read.All

# Attribute mapping

rundeck.ssoSyncAttribNames.firstname=given_name

rundeck.ssoSyncAttribNames.lastname=family_name

rundeck.ssoSyncAttribNames.email=preferred_username

# Optional mapping (currently commented)

#rundeck.security.oauth.azure.principleKeys=preferred_username

Issue:

• Rundeck continues to redirect to /user/login instead of Azure SSO.
• The Azure login button is not triggering SSO.
• Changes in rundeck-config.properties do not seem to be reflected after restart.

What I’m Looking For:

• What could be causing Rundeck to ignore the Azure SSO configuration?
• Am I missing any mandatory configuration values for Azure OAuth?
• Are there additional settings (e.g., rundeck.security.auth.type, framework settings, or profile configs) required to enable SSO?
• Any troubleshooting steps to verify if the config is being picked up?

Any guidance on what I might be missing or how to debug this issue would be greatly appreciated.
