How to setup Shibboleth authentication using database

[Priyanka W Dhoble]

I have checked the war file it does not have " tagishauth.jar" file in it. Do I need to copy these jar files to Shibboleth installation directories lib folder and then build war?

Hi peter,

I will copy SQL & tagishauth.jar both jar's in Shibboleth lib folder and will try again.

I tested the authentication using Shibboleth test application https://sp.testshib.org/ . And there is no error logged in Shibboleth & tomcat logs. Only it says authentication failed even if I enter correct username & password.

Thanks,
Priyanka

Not sure this is what you've done but both steps 2 and 6 should state to copy any jars into the IdP's unpacked distribution's lib/ directory, and rebuild the war after that.

You should be able to verify that both jars are part of the idp.war (e.g. `unzip -l war/idp.war | fgrep jar` or any other way on MS-Windows).

Do you get any errors anywhere during authentication?
How did you test authentication?

Also try using the FlatFile method for comparison (does not rely on an external network service).
