Thank you so much for taking time to guide me through the next steps that'll help.
You are right that I tried to obfuscate the data I am putting out, since they are production servers and I try not to call unnecessary attention to them. However, in the interest of this issue, I will have my team build a temporary server (for both Gluu and Jira with the miniOrange plugin). This will take a few days, but will be done, so you can have all the logs you need to see if there is anything to be done.
For now, however, I fixed the issue (spit and glue fix) where I customized the logout code in the plugin and inserted a 1x1px iframe with source as the end_session endpoint. That way, the endpoint is called thereby ending the session for the user and the generated error is, kind of, hidden from the user. Good enough for us, for now.
I totally understand the need to understand the standard, but am under a heavy time crunch and hence keep postponing it. The requirement is simple: We have a standalone Jira server and a standalone Gluu server for our users. I wanted to implement Single Sign-On (in a very primitive sense) so the users don't have to create a separate password for our Jira server (they already have an account on Gluu server for other purposes). The only way to have Jira engage an OpenID Connect / OAuth2 server is via a plugin and miniOrange plugin came out to be the most recommended one that a lot of people seem to use. Hence I went down that path. Everything was fine, until I hit the Logout button, the plugin's logout endpoint was invoked. This endpoint logged out from Jira session, and simply invoked the logout endpoing of the OP provided without waiting to hear back from the OP endpoint. Since I was using the end_session endpoint (and did not know how to use the front-channel-logout), Gluu seems to be throwing that error after ending the session.
So, like I said, I will have new servers spun up just to replicate this issue and provide all the logs you'd need to see if anything on Gluu's side needs to be fixed. Same for mini Orange team. The end goal is to make this plugin work with Gluu server for the community's benefit.
