Metadata certificate on idp.testshib.org seems expired on August 2016

[Lukas Reschke]

Hi all

I’m trying to connect against testshib.org with our SAML library. That used to work last time I tested it but this time it is failing.

Looking at the metadata from idp.testshib.org (https://idp.testshib.org/Shibboleth.sso/Metadata) I noticed that the used certificate is expired August 27 2016. My suspicion is that this is the reason that it fails for us as our implementation seems to check for the certificate date.

I didn’t find any better contact address so I went with this one. Hope this is the correct one.

Would it be possible to update the certificate on idp.testshib.org. Or am I missing something here and this actually isn’t the currently used certificate anymore?

Best regards
