Description

When I deploy NiFi behind a custom context path eg (https://my-nifi/my/context/path/) and using OpenID authentication, after the login I'm redirected to https://my-nifi/nifi/ instead of https://my-nifi/my/context/path/nifi/ .

My presumption is, that the relative redirect in httpServletResponse.sendRedirect it's respecting the contextPath provided in the X-ProxyContextPath header:
