Hi, and thanks again!

Of course you couldn't -- my bad for not providing sufficient detail.

So all this means...that shibd is getting the XML, and unpacking it, and
then not knowing what to do with the mapping?

In which log might I find these? What other knobs can I twiddle to find
these?

In shibd.logger, I have pretty much everything set to DEBUG

The transaction log has many lines like
2014-12-03 14:46:48 INFO Shibboleth-TRANSACTION [5]: New session (ID:
_13032dbfdee80993f655dfc5597c686c) with (applicationId: default) for
principal from (IdP: https://idp.testshib.org/idp/shibboleth) at

How can I tell? I'm breathless with debugging-anticipation! :-)

I have bounced shibd many times, but I can bounce it one more.

Once again, thanks for your patience and help with a shibbo-noob.
