Missing attribute from SAML2 response

Prior to the block of encrypted data in the logs should be something like 'SAML assertion to be encrypted:'
with the clear-text SAML assertion.  You'll likely find nothing in that assertion for the missing
atribute, confirming a prior problem in setting the value - such as retrieving no acceptable value
from the data source or failing to encode it.
