Hi Bryson, Just to clarify, have you seen the official 4.x documentation for setting up Shibboleth at:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC4x/Authentication+Plugins#AuthenticationPlugins-ShibbolethAuthentication The official docs go into some detail as to how you can configure Apache + Tomcat + mod_shib. I just wanted to be sure you are looking at the correct place in the Wiki (as you didn't mention which wiki page you were looking at) I'm pretty sure there are also some older, outdated notes others have posted elsewhere on the wiki (most of the wiki is publicly editable...but the "official docs" section is privately maintained & usually more accurate). - Tim On 7/8/2014 5:33 PM, Duda, Bryson wrote: > Hi everyone, > > I’ve been having some problems getting Shibboleth and Dspace to play > nice together, and I’m hoping that someone can help me see where I’m > going wrong.
