Hi
I hope somebody can help me by pointing out another path where to search for the reason and/or the solution to this problem.
We have a FG1K5 Cluster with a dedicated vdom for VPN. I configured ssl-vpn with forticlient for our users so that they can browse both internal and external websites. Through FortiClient everything works fine and as expected. If I try to browse an external site (internal sites are working well) using "quick connect" or with a bookmark from the vpn web portal I get the error (from chrome) "[FQDN of vpn gw/fortigate] didn’t send any data. ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE".
I see no entries in the traffic log or the "diagnose debug flow trace" (from other vdoms I see some trace hits to the IP so the command should be correct :) ) and a packet capture on all interfaces (multiple captures) with a filter set to the destination IP has no hits.
With "diagnose debug application sslvpn -1" e get the following lines for that particular destination URL. DNS seems to work as the IP can be successfuly looked up.

Does somebody has a hint where else to look? I think that maybe routing could be different for the web portal, could this be?
Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards, Stefan
