See https://github.com/openbmc/bmcweb/issues/273, which was initially reported for a different problem but has stumbled onto this one as well.

Can you capture the network console log from your browser when this failure happens? Are there any requests that have failed? In the past I've seen a case where the webui requestst the /redfish/v1/AccountService/Accounts/null user (which obviously doesn't exist) then doesn't handle the error well.

nevermind about the log, I think I found it. Can you please try: https://gerrit.openbmc.org/c/openbmc/bmcweb/+/71309

I'm not sure the same issue, but I've also encountered before with errors when end Session timeout browser refresh BMC WebUI will doesn't reload to the login page, only when deleting Cookies Value "XSRF-TOKEN" the Login page is reloaded. Currently, fixed by commit: https://gerrit.openbmc.org/c/openbmc/bmcweb/+/70292/10
