Failed to download metadata from /Shibboleth.sso/DiscoFeed

[Anon Programmer]

Hi all,

I'm attempting to install and configure Shibboleth's embedded discovery 
service. I've installed the software using the yum command described 
here: 
https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/EDS10/2.+Installation. 
I've configured my service provider as described here: 
https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/EDS10/3.1+Configuring+the+Service+Provider. 
With testshib.org being the metadataprovider. When i send a request to 
<my-server-ip>/secure i'm redirected to 
<my-server-ip>/shibboleth-ds/index.html?entityID=<data> which fires off 
the error message: "Failed to download metadata from 
/Shibboleth.sso/DiscoFeed". When i send a request to 
<my-server-ip>/Shibboleth.sso/DiscoFeed i get the error message: 
"Discovery Request Failed". Any idea what i'm doing wrong?

Thanks!
