Problem getting FortiClient (free version) to connect using IPSec VPN and Entra ID SAML SSO

IPSec VPN with SAML was configured according to https://community.fortinet.com/t5/FortiGate/Technical-Tip-How-to-configure-Microsoft-Entra-ID-SAML/ta-p/307457. The configuration seems to be in place according to the documentation, but I get ERR_CERTIFICATE_INVALID (which is to be expected), but if I click 'Continue (unsafe),' the Script Error shows up. Error says 'Permission denied,' and the URL says 'about:blank.' If I click 'Yes' for 'Do you want to continue running scripts on this page,' it simply goes back to the untrusted certificate popup. It cycles back and forth indefinitely. Does anyone have an idea as to what I can try? Thank you.

The problem is resolved. I upgraded FortiClient to the latest, and it works without a hitch.

If you're dealing with problem getting FortiClient (free version) to connect using IPSec VPN and Entra ID SAML SSO, taking a break and relaxing with a game like Stickman Hook might be the refreshment you need. It's challenging to troubleshoot complex firewall configurations all the time, so taking a short gaming break can help clear your mind and even spark new ideas for solving the issue. Stay focused and keep troubleshooting!
