I'm not too familiar with the Saml11TicketValidator implementation so I can't easily spot whether you could have an issue there by looking at the logs. You may want to try adjusting the ticketTimeTolerance. It may be worth experimenting with ticketValidatorName="Cas20". I believe there were some patches to the CAS 2.0 validator to accept attributes.
You alluded to there being more than one server in the data center. Do you have multiple web servers running the application that you're attempting to CASify? If so, your situation gets slightly complicated. From the looks of it, on line 53 it's 'Processing Proxy Callback request'. Proxy authentication won't succeed without a proxyTicketManagerProvider registered and the default proxyTicketManager and serviceTicketManager don't support multiple web servers. Processes that depend on those services will inevitably fail (proxy ticket creation, processing of inbound single-signout requests) unless you plug in your own custom implementation of IServiceTicketManager and IProxyTicketManager that persist to shared storage. I see that you have removed the proxyTicketManagerProvider from web.config. If line 53 means that it's trying to use that provider, that could explain why the ticket/cookie isn't getting generated. If you aren't running your app on multiple servers, try to remove the serviceTicketManagerProvider="CacheServiceTicketManager" attribute. Your serverName attributes shows http://. I'm not sure offhand whether the CAS server has restrictions on connecting to http:// endpoints by default, but https:// is definitely recommended for security purposes, particularly when proxy tickets are in play. If there is a restriction on this, the proxy ticket phase could be failing due to a missing callback from the CAS server. I imagine the logs on the CAS server would indicate this situation. The last resort troubleshooting approach on the app side would be to try would be to include the DotNetCasClient as a project reference rather than an assembly reference. You could then set breakpoints in CasAuthentication or CasAuthenticationModule and see what's going on under the hood. -Scott On Tue, Nov 5, 2013 at 12:22 PM, Lehman, Jason <jleh...@usf.edu> wrote: > Worked with the Data Center and the certificate wasn’t installed on > every server but that has been resolved.
