Application Override: no valid session

Maybe I stated it the wrong way.

First: artifact is required by our IDP. That's the main reason why my client choose to use  Shibboleth, because tools like keycloak did not support this. I'm doing a "proof of concept" at the moment at their request. Other teams are trying other solutions, like custom coding in Java and customizing Keycloak to support Artifact Resolution. Their IDP does support it, but in the role of SP it is not supported yet. 

Second: in our metadata, we put our AssertionConsumerService like     <md:AssertionConsumerService Binding="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-Artifact" Location="<myserver>/Shibboleth.sso/SAML2/Artifact" index="3"/>
Third: our IDP requires acs by index and attributeIndex; I know you don’t like that, neither do I.... 

But when using application override, it must use <myserver>/<applicationname>/Shibboleth.sso/SAML2/Artifact to use the override handler. So I have to put that, with a new index value, in my metadata, and tell the IDP to use this one by setting acsByIndex="true" acsIndex="4" in my override in shibboleth2.xml.

Have not been able to test it yet, for the IDP has to load my new metadata, and since I have to demo Shibboleth SP to the stakeholders tomorrow, I don't want to risk breaking it now... 

As you may have noticed, I'm not a Shibboleth Expert, but like they say: “In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king”.
