07:40 venki Hi I am trying to setup Shibboleth in my institution
07:40 jri joined #dataverse
07:41 venki and I am getting the following error "Problem with Identity Provider The SAML assertion for "eppn" was null. Please contact support."
07:42 venki And when I check Shibboleth Session URL I find that the attributes are null.
07:42 venki any ideas why is it so?

10:30 pdurbin yeah, https://dataverse.example.edu/Shibboleth.sso/Session or whatever should show some data, as shown at http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.5.1/installation/shibboleth.html#exchange-metadata-with-your-identity-provider
10:31 pdurbin Per that page, I recommend testing with the IdP at http://testshib.org first.

12:46 pdurbin donsizemore: good morning
12:46 donsizemore @pdurbin welcome back!
12:47 pdurbin donsizemore: thanks. Any interest in replying on this thread? RHEL Linux, SELinux and Shibboleth - Google Groups - https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/dataverse-community/U04sLtEkJ7Q
12:48 donsizemore I think Glassfish plays well with SELinux, it's Shibboleth that requires permissive?
12:49 pdurbin donsizemore: right. I'm running "Enforcing" on a Dataverse server where I'm not using Shibboleth: http://irclog.iq.harvard.edu/dataverse/2016-10-03#i_42518
12:49 pdurbin donsizemore: it's been suggested at https://irclog.perlgeek.de/crimsonfu/2016-10-05#i_13342065 that a "TE" file could be written to make Shibboleth play nicely with SELinux
12:50 donsizemore @pdurbin SELinux with Shib is officially unsupported https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/SHIB2/NativeSPSELinux
12:52 pdurbin donsizemore: correct. I link to that wiki page from http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.5.1/installation/shibboleth.html#disable-selinux
12:53 donsizemore short of tinkering with SELinux, I'm happy to reply to him, for what little bit I'm worth
12:57 pdurbin I just don't want that thread to go unanswered.
12:57 pdurbin donsizemore: but I can try to find someone else. I wonder if bricas_ or jri use RHEL or CentOS.
12:59 donsizemore @pdurbin i hadn't read his note carefully enough the first time. i thought they were requiring that he turn on SELinux
13:00 pdurbin It says, "Our IT team want us to set SELinux enforcing ON"
13:00 jri We're using CentOS and SELinux, but not Shibboletch for now unfortunately
13:00 pdurbin jri: you have SELinux enforcing?
13:00 donsizemore @pdurbin but then he dials it back and asks about security with selinux=permissive
13:00 jri SELinux has no problem with Dataverse btw
13:01 pdurbin jri: right, it's really Shibboleth that doesn't work with SELinux. Is this preventing you from adopting Shibboleth?
13:02 jri No, it's just that I don't have time to plug our Shibboleth to Dataverse.
13:02 pdurbin donsizemore: yeah, I feel like "how do I secure Linux?" is fairly off-topic for the dataverse-community list.
13:02 jri But I'll do it someday
13:02 donsizemore @pdurbin I can speak to what we've got in place for dataverse.unc.edu.
13:03 pdurbin jri: cool. Heads up that Shibboleth doesn't play nicely with SELinux: https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/SHIB2/NativeSPSELinux
13:03 pdurbin donsizemore: that you be much appreciated. Please feel free to link to these logs as well.
13:04 pdurbin I see venki was hear earlier but I was still asleep.
13:28 pdurbin donsizemore: fantastic reply! Thanks!!
