Hi all, We are trying to open a Perspective session within a browser based MES system. After disabling x-frame the session starts but stops at Authenticating … SAMEORIGIN does not work Allow-From makes the Gateway not start. The MES system prefer Internet Explorer 11. Any ideas, please? ![xframe](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/0/3/03be5cef485a8e6c4e83bc5bf804e22cf242c241.jpeg) ---

I’m guessing that the space in that additional argument might be causing an issue. Try using double-quotes for the value, e.g.: ```auto wrapper.java.additional.3=-Dignition.http.header.x_frame_options.value="ALLOW-FROM http://10.26.26.60/" ``` ---

In addition to the issue pointed out by @Kevin.Collins I think you may also have a problem using IE11, which is not supported by Perspective. ---

Thanks, will try again tomorrow. We tested with chrome as well. Bit unsure if allow-from is supported by chrome? ---

Hi, Using ALLOW-FROM as suggested by Mr. Collins does not get us any further. Opening the Perspective project as a own tab in the same Chrome browser goes straight in. Its public. Opening the Perspective project inside the MES frames, its just trying to authenticate over and over. ![auth](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/e/b/eb06b396f830e6fde2303663bf85160d6ef6568d.jpeg) ---

Are you using Ignition’s built-in IdP ? If not, you will also need your Identity Provider to change their Content Security Policy. ---

We’re using the built in idP. Any more ideas? 😃 Will call support when they open in an hour. ---

I am currently having this problem. It keeps authenticating on the MES screen. How did you resolve this? ---

Replaced the MES with Ignition. 😁 ---

Did you mean it won't work? We have the MES covering 80% of the screen and we want the ignition to cover the remaining 20% ---

You will have to run older versions of your browser or somethink like that. Its a security issue. ---
