SAML message delivered with POST to incorrect server URL. with Google Cloud Load Balancer

Hi Scott (et al), I was able to add ServerAlias for the desired name in my httpd-ssl.conf file and get it to work once I removed the 443 port reference from my URLS in my metadata.  Interestingly, I was unable to 'add' port 443 to my name on the SP end via that ServerAlias directive, or even the ServerName directive.  I would only able to 'remove' all port references.

Thanks, for the help

Apache requires that be set for most  applications to run properly in an environment like that, so yes, that's the only way for Shibboleth to work since it has to be set regardless. That's a feature (you configure your web server properly and the SP just works). IIS doesn't support virtualization so the SP is forced to compensate, but Apache does so there's no reason to do anything special.

If your application functions without ServerName set, it either never generates self-referential links or it's got a bug.
