Login succeed then redirect, redirect, redirect... Finally page isn't redirecting properly.

Hello, As I’am trying to install jupyterhub using docker on the same host I’ve started from your configuration and just modified the authenticator to be LDAPAuthenticator. After login, I get the ‘Start Server’ page but after clicking on the start button firefox displays ‘the page isn’t redirecting properly’.

Here the logs of the jupyterhub:

I found that related issue jupyterhub #742 and tried various configuration changes without success.

Please, could you give me a hint? What could I check to make it through this? Thanks in advance.

running Jupyterhub 0.7.2 in a container with the DockerSpawner works, but running Jupyterhub 0.8.0 (latest on Dockerhub) causes the same infinite redirect issue and does not work.

I ended up by installing jupyterhub 0.7.2 directly without docker and it works.
