We've had a couple shibboleth authentication problems since we updated to 1.6.2. At the same time the service was moved to another computer. That means I can not be sure whether this is a problem of DSpace or only our shibboleth authentication installation.
Problem is, that sometimes I cannot log into DSpace with an account at some specific computer/browser. For example at this moment my account work right with Mozilla Firefox, but at the same computer login with Internet Explorer has an answer: Authentication Failed. Part of dspace.log of that Internet Explorer trials: 2011-01-31 08:44:03,035 INFO org.dspace.authenticate.ShibAuthentication @ Shibboleth login started... 2011-01-31 08:44:03,035 INFO org.dspace.authenticate.ShibAuthentication @ RemoteUser identified as: null 2011-01-31 08:44:03,035 ERROR org.dspace.authenticate.ShibAuthentication @ No email is given, you're denied access by Shib, please release email address 2011-01-31 08:44:03,035 INFO org.dspace.authenticate.ShibAuthentication @ Shibboleth login started... 2011-01-31 08:44:03,035 INFO org.dspace.authenticate.ShibAuthentication @ RemoteUser identified as: null 2011-01-31 08:44:03,035 ERROR org.dspace.authenticate.ShibAuthentication @ No email is given, you're denied access by Shib, please release email address 201 So the Shibboleth don't give the email address to DSpace. At earlier case couple of weeks ago I couldn't log in with this computer with either browser, but when I tried with computer/browser combination which is not in same Windows domain and which I haven't used earlier to log into DSpace it worked well (with the same DSpace account). Restarting the shibboleth service helps but the problem has appeared again after a few weeks. While this could be a problem of our organization's shibboleth service, I'm asking if somebody has seen something like this and could this be a problem of DSpace? To me it seems some kind on session problem. yours Tapani Lehtilä -- Tapani Lehtilä, Tampere University of Technology / Library [email protected] +358 40 849 0208 P.O.Box 537, 33101 Tampere Finland Street address: Korkeakoulunkatu 10, 33720 Tampere, Finland ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
