Embedded Discovery Service

Hi:

I installed EDS via yum and made the following configuration updates:

1) In Apache - inserted the following into the httpd.conf file:
'Include /etc/shibboleth-ds/shibboleth-ds.conf'

2) In shibboleth2.xml - I made the >v2.4 updates as suggested at
https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/EDS10/3.1+Configuring+the+Service+Provider
(I changed federation and EDS URLs to my settings)


By navigating to the EDS 'index.html' page, I received the following
error: 'FATAL - DISCO UI:No parameters to discovery session and no
defaultReturn parameter configured'

The Shibboleth wiki lists the above error as caused by 'Unless
myEntityId and defaultReturn is supplied in the idpselect_config.js,
then the EDS needs to be approached using the IdP Discovery Protocol.
This error is thrown in case where neither is true.'

I am afraid, I do not understand the above - do I have to edit the
'idpselect_config.js' file? If so, what edit should I make.

Thank you.
