What info does an sp need to provide to an idp?

Tue Jul 31 12:45:59 EDT 2012

Hello,

I've setup a service provider and tested it with testshib.org.  Now we're
trying to integrate with an identity provider and having problems.

We get so far as making a request to https://ourdomain.com/secure gets
redirected to the idp's login page, but it just shows an error:

Error Message: SAML 2 SSO profile is not configured for relying party <our
sp entity id>

We're not sure how to proceed because it seems like a misconfiguration on
their end.  Does that sound correct?  What are the general steps for
registering an sp with an idp?

We've provided them with our sp's entity id and our certificate.  What
other information do we need to provide to them?  What files do they need
to edit?

A part of the problem is that they've never registered an sp in the system
that isn't a part of InCommon.  Any tips?

Thanks for the help.
