Does mod_shib ever do AttributeQueries?

Thanks, Scott. In that case, I have a theory about what happened here. Thanks much.

And since I haven't seen it in the mod_shib documentation, how would I tell mod_shib not to do attribute queries when no attributes are returned?

Yes, if you don't tell it not to.

No, a failed POST is just an error. This is the IdP providing no attributes.
