Right , But i have two documents containing signature elements which seem to be equal ( when checked using isEqualNode() method ,) but signature is verified for first and fails for other. How's that possible ?
I have a signed object called authnResponse which has methods getAsElement() , and buildFromDom() . and I do something like ... newAuthnResponse = authnResponse.buildFromDom(authnResponse.getAsElement()) ( i am not even reading from stream etc.) When i compare authnResponse and newAuthnResponse w.r.t. the root elements, owner documents , serialised output , data structures etc. i cannot find any difference. ( i.e. they are not same but seem to be equal) but, signature verification fails for newAuthnResponse and works for original authnResponse. Also , As two Document elements seem to be equal my methods to build and read dom elements seem to be ok. I cannot understand exactly what i should do. I am using self signed cert. Could that be a reason for failure of signatures ? Can i know the reason for signature failure in any way ? That would be great help. Thanks in advance, --Pushya. -- Pushyamitra Navare
