Error on Testshib.org IdP server: SPSSODescriptor role metadata ... could not be resolved

[McNeill, Stu]

Many thanks Kevin for that!  Alas I just tried uploading my metadata file again and see the same error in the log (below).  Am I right in thinking this is down to another Metadata file?

Ok guys .. I’ve removed the MD file from June 24. 
Please remember your file name so you can upload over your previous version of MD :-) 

-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 12218 Jun 24 15:20 pccc-metadata.xml
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 16296 Jun 30 16:39 pccc.xml

Learning to setup your own IdP is a useful task though… :-)

thanks
