Hi all,
i'm having hard time to figure out what is wrong in my shibboleth installation.
What i'm trying to do is to set up IdP installation on my server.
I'm quite new to shibboleth so i'm sorry if i got something totally wrong.

I'm going along this
https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/SHIB2/IdPMetadataProvider
tutorial,
and i'm stuck after adding SP metadata into my relying-party.xml

Before adding this particular SP metadata all works as expected.

The problematic SP metadata is located here:
https://auth.ipublishcentral.com/simplesaml/module.php/saml/sp/metadata.php/default-sp

and what i did was to add these lines into relying-party.xml

<metadata:MetadataProvider id="etextbook"
xsi:type="FilesystemMetadataProvider"
xmlns="urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:metadata"
metadataFile="/export/home/elsevier/shibboleth-idp/metadata/etextbook-metadata.xml"/>
</metadata:MetadataProvider>

(i was trying to add it with FileBackedHTTPMetadataProvider but the
result was the same)

and when starting tomcat i have this error in logs:

 org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-complex-type.2.4.a: Invalid
content was found starting with element 'ph:QueryParam'. One of
'{"urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:idp:profile-handler":AuthenticationMethod}'
is expected.

If some one can point me into the direction where i could find more
info about how to resolve this issue i would be very gratefull.


Best greetnings,
Paweł Wielgus.
