New Shibboleth daemon on new server - user/wayf page just reloads over and over

Thank you for your feedback. I tried changing the SSO WAYF value in our
modern attempt, but I still get the 500 server error.  The best luck we've
had is by using something closer to our original configuration. It allows
us to get to the WAYF page, but still redirects back to itself.

Based on this page,
https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/SHIB2/NativeSPServiceSSO ,
it sounds like we need to use SSO to replace Session Initiator, but trying
it:
<SSO discoveryProtocol="SAMLDS"
discoveryURL="https://new.educause.edu/user/wayf">
  SAML2 SAML1
</SSO>



Or

<SSO discoveryProtocol="WAYF"
discoveryURL="https://new.educause.edu/user/wayf">
  SAML2 SAML1
</SSO>

Still gives us the same 500 error.

In the older version that is currently up, we use SessionInitiator like
this:

<SessionInitiator type="Chaining" Location="/DS" isDefault="true" id="DS"
acsByIndex="false" relayState="cookie">
                <SessionInitiator type="SAML2" acsByIndex="false"
acsIndex="1" template="bindingTemplate.html" />
                <SessionInitiator type="Shib1" acsIndex="5" />
                <SessionInitiator type="SAMLDS"
URL="https://new.educause.edu/user/wayf" />
            </SessionInitiator>



Is our SSO version missing something? Is there anything to change to the
older version (attached) that would make it work or do we absolutely have
to have a modern version to work with our 2.5.2 install?

Thank you for your help.
