There's no POST period. Whatever you think you see, that isn't it. There
is no logging indicating it ever processes the POST. So by definition no
cookie.

If you see that, then you have the SP only partly configured because the
*SP* isn't seeing that. Your web server isn't handing that off to my code.

I suspect because you're ProxyPassing everything and not excluding
/Shibboleth.sso. You can't do that.

Nope.
