The error above is caused by failing to meet both of the following criteria: 1. Request to /samlValidate must have TARGET querystring parameter 2. Request body must have properly formed SAML request payload, e.g. <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";> <SOAP-ENV:Header/> <SOAP-ENV:Body> <samlp:Request xmlns:samlp="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.0:protocol" MajorVersion="1" MinorVersion="1" RequestID="_192.168.16.51.1024506224022" IssueInstant="2002-06-19T17:03:44.022Z"> <samlp:AssertionArtifact> ST-7-hqNf4nzSOBfHVTacMWVP-cas-dev.middleware.vt.edu </samlp:AssertionArtifact> </samlp:Request> </SOAP-ENV:Body> </SOAP-ENV:Envelope> I will assume you're using the Java CAS client 3.1 or better, which is the only client that supports SAML. If it is configured propertly, you should be meeting the criteria above. Have you followed the instructions at http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASC/CAS+Client+for+Java+3.1?
