SciQuest sends a POST back to Peoplesoft.
The SP in front of Peoplesoft decides to initiate a new session (currently
using Redirect, but we tried POST too).
The IDP POSTs back to /Shibboleth.sso/SAML2/POST.
The SP then apparently does a GET for the Peoplesoft content.

Oracle says that request should have been a POST (presumably with data that
came in from SciQuest) and that's why we're getting an empty page
I believe that we're configured to store POST data in shared memory (the
postData settings in the Session element)

If it's going back and forth, and it's the PS session that's missing, then

I'm trying to find out what version of the SP we're running.  It may be
3.0, not 3.1.
