@BartelBe Is it the same issue as #29161 ? If so, and I think it is, then it is expected behaviour. Please check the discussion in that issue and let us know if you are ok with it. If so, you or we can close this issue here. Thanks in advance.

Right, same as #29161.
All true, but for usability sake, you can avoid all the fuzz (for the webmaster without the thorough experienced based troubleshooting) by simply requiring to select a page, instead of defaulting to an error situation in case of guest access.
