While logging out from redmine, it should redirects to login page just like google email works. But if user visits Redmine link for first time after opening web browser for first time, then it should behaves as it is.

While logging out from redmine, it should redirects to login page
My 2.4.2 does exactly that...
I am using 2.5.1, what I meant was, after clicking Sign Out, redmine should get redirected to Sign In page. I don't know whether it is possible or not for you people. But you can observe this requested behavior based on browser cookies after sign out from Gmail account.

It does exactly that, like I stated above. It also does on my 2.5.1 instance...
Sorry, I can't reproduce your described behaviour (i.e. that it does not redirect)...

Okay Jan, do one thing, please follow these steps.....
1. www.redmine.org
2. Click on 'Sign In' link
3. Login to redmine
4. Then navigate to any link (say 'Wiki')
5. Then click sign out
6. Now check whether you are redirected to sign in page or you are still at Wiki page

You're right, I can reproduce this on redmine.org... (which uses 2.5.1 devel btw).

If your Redmine is configured to always require authentication in Administration -> Settings -> Authentication -> Authentication required, then there will be no public content and users will be redirected to the login page as required.
If the Redmine is configured to allow anonymous access to (some) projects, it is quite reasonable to allow anonymous access to these public pages after login. This is the case on https://www.redmine.org. On GMail, they use a behavior similar to Redmine required authentication, as anonymous access to your emails is not desired.
Thus, if you want to always require a login AND to redirect the user to the login page after logout, you can enforce authentication with the above mentioned setting.
