Internation dateline issue

Well, that issue magically resolved itself...

Now it looks like a cert issue...

We run shibboleth 2.3.0

We joined the AAF and as part of that process, the AAF required that we create a new cert that used our entityID instead of our base domain.  So, I created a new one:

        <CredentialResolver type="Chaining">
        <!-- 
             Certificate/Private key pairs are read in sequence.
             Unless specificially defined only the first 
             CredentialResolver is used for attribute requests.
        -->
             <CredentialResolver type="File" keyName="Active" use="encryption"
                                 key="C:\opt\shibboleth-sp\etc\shibboleth\sp-key-2011.pem" 
                                 certificate="C:\opt\shibboleth-sp\etc\shibboleth\sp-cert-2011.pem"/>
             <CredentialResolver type="File" keyName="Standby" 
                                 key="C:\opt\shibboleth-sp\etc\shibboleth\sp-key.pem" 
                                 certificate="C:\opt\shibboleth-sp\etc\shibboleth\sp-cert.pem"/>
             <CredentialResolver type="File" keyName="AAF" 
                                 key="C:\opt\shibboleth-sp\etc\shibboleth\sp-key-AAF.pem" 
                                 certificate="C:\opt\shibboleth-sp\etc\shibboleth\sp-cert-AAF.pem"/>
        </CredentialResolver>

Regenerated my metadata and gave that to the AAF.  Got theirs and their cert. Load em up, no problem. 

Obviously the cert is my first suspect in this - Anyone care to venture what to look at?  I have verified that my metadata has the correct AAF cert in it.  The AAF also has mine correctly.  Where else can I look?

Yes, has nothing to do with what you generate.
