Unable to add multiple redirect URLs with Microsoft Live OAuth service

I have an ASP.Net C# Web Application in which I have added Windows Live oAuth authentication (I am not using the code supplied by the Visual Studio project template for oAuth). I have two return pages in my application where the user should come back after authenticating with the Windows Live oAuth Service. The reason I have two end points is to distinguish two different modes in my application based on where the user returns.

Anyways, the problem is that when I add the second URL in the configuration screen of Microsoft Windows live at https://account.live.com/developers/applications/apisettings/, the Microsoft Live page simply does not save it. Here is what I am doing:

  1. Go to https://account.live.com/developers/applications/index
  2. Click Application name and then edit Settings
  3. go To API Settings
  4. Click "Add another redirect URL"
  5. Added my second URL and clicked save.
  6. The second text box where I entered the URL simply disappears and my second URL does not work in the oAuth flow.

If any of you has faced a similar issue, do you have a work around? If this is something Microsoft should fix, where should I raise this bug with Microsoft?

Screen shot after clicking on save. See the second text box for redirect URL has disappeared.

Update: I have also tried a work around of creating two applications, so that each one has one of the return URLs, but Microsoft does not allow two applications with the same root domain URL. :(

I have the same issue.

This is not your fault, and there is nothing other than Microsoft would be able to fix it.
