404 when trying to use URL enrollment

Version Affected:  SecureAuth Identity Platform all versions

Description:  

When trying to use URL enrollment on the Authenticate app or the Passcode app, it errors out with a 404 - File or directory not found.

Cause:  

The Authenticate app and the Passcode app is hardcoded to add the SecureAuth998 at the end of the FQDN if it does not detect a SecureAuth realm number.  This usually would happen if you are using a vanity URL or alias for the realm.  

For example, if a user types in the FQDN and the alias, the application will try and redirect to https://FQDN.com/Enroll/SecureAuth998.

Resolution:

Do not use the alias when using URL enrollment, and have users type in the FQDN.  This will redirect them to SecureAuth998, which by default is set to use URL enrollment.
