        <p style='margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;'>Recently, we invested quite some time with an SP problem where a key rollover led to failed logins. In the shibd.log file there were messages like:</p>

<div class="preformatted panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><div class="preformattedContent panelContent">
<pre> 
2013-03-04 10:13:07 WARN XMLTooling.Decrypter [1]: Credential did not
contain a private key.
2013-03-04 10:13:07 ERROR Shibboleth.SSO.SAML2 [1]: Unable to decrypt key.
</pre>
</div></div> 

<p style='margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;'>However, the shibboleth2.xml configuruation looked like:</p>

<div class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><div class="codeContent panelContent">
<pre class="code-xml">
&lt;CredentialResolver type=<span class="code-quote">"File"</span> Key=<span class="code-quote">"New-SP-Key.pem"</span>
certificate=<span class="code-quote">"New-SP-crt.pem"</span> /&gt;
</pre>
</div></div>

<p style='margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;'>Both pem file existed in the correct location, were readable and contained PEM formatted (unencrypted) data. </p>

<p style='margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;'>Also, the Shibboleth configuration check ("shibd -t") said the overall configuration was ok. No warnings, no ERRORs no CRITs.</p>

<p style='margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;'>After much testing and debugging we then found that this configuration works <img class="emoticon" src="https://issues.shibboleth.net/jira/images/icons/emoticons/smile.gif" height="20" width="20" align="absmiddle" alt="" border="0"/></p>

<div class="code panel" style="border-width: 1px;"><div class="codeContent panelContent">
<pre class="code-xml"> 
&lt;CredentialResolver type=<span class="code-quote">"File"</span> key=<span class="code-quote">"New-SP-Key.pem"</span>
certificate=<span class="code-quote">"New-SP-crt.pem"</span> /&gt;
</pre>
</div></div>

<p style='margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;'>See the difference? Well, it took us quite some time to figure out that key != Key</p>

<p style='margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;'>If the configuration check had made us aware of this minor difference, we could have identified the problem a lot faster. </p>

<p style='margin-top:0;margin-bottom:10px;'>Maybe there are reasons why it makes sense to have a CredentialResolver only containing a certificate. However, I could not find one. Therefore, the proposal is to add a check to ensure each credential resolver has a private key (and certificate) configured.</p>
