Just from top of the head here. Redirection from https to http mean you will
loose your session and in turn your authentication.

Most likely you are trying to redirect your user to an action which requires
authentication but is not on https, thus that action redirects the user back
to login on https your which finds your as being already authenticated and
redirects to....

got it :-)
