Verified by looking at the code. It's just impossible for that to fail when it's explicitly saying it found the result in the session to reuse less than a second before that in the log. Not without it having to call some external data store and having that fail in an odd way, i.e. not with simple memory storage involved.

Also, that won't matter here. This shouldn't even be noticeable as a failure in SSO, the warning message happens in that spot and then it just should proceed (as it says, the update is skipped and that's all).

By that point it should have already decided to do SSO and be done with the login process.
