I got " Authentication Failed" on the login.jsp when I try to log into the shibboleth, it seems like I get connected to my LDAP server based on the log infor, then I end up with following error  in /opt/shibboleth-idp/logs/idp-process.log, I can't retrieve all the metadata source, here is one of them:

11:26:38.121 - ERROR [org.opensaml.saml2.metadata.provider.HTTPMetadataProvider:273] - Error retrieving metadata from https://saqa.csun.edu/Shibboleth.sso/Metadata
javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path validation failed: java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Path does not chain with any of the trust anchors


Yes, I use 443 as the https port.

Yes, but for which port? For 443, that's fine/expected. For 8443, that's a very bad idea.

You're still not telling me where the error is though. If this is a Shibboleth issue, then it should be in a log from the IdP based on trying to do some specific thing. If it's not a Shibboleth issue, then I suggest you look into your container's documentation/support.
