What was it running before?

There is info level message showing "None of the potential authentication flows can satisfy the request”. Is this something I can fix in IDP configuration or it has to be fixed in SP? This SP worked fine before the upgrade.

The IdP is not going to handle a request for this out of the box:

Shibboleth sees that as undefined ayway, but it probably could be made to do something with it.

Until I know what you were running and what you think broke it, I'm not going to speculate any further, but no SP should be asking for that.
