Unable to locate metadata for identity provider

I'm trying to configure both Shibboleth service provider and identity provider on localhost for testing purposes.

The problem is that I'm getting "unable to locate metadata for identity provider" error when trying to access a protected resource.

I've already read all tutorials and discussions that are related to software configuration and this particular error fixing, but nothing works for me.

shibboleth2.xml config for SP:

Note, that entityID in both files is equal as its the common reason for my error.

The protected site is hosted on local IIS and is accessible via

http://bios-hp/secure 

URL where I get the error.

All possible status URLs for both SP and IdP return successfull results.

Any ideas?

Don't know about your secured path, but it seems that your entityId is http://bios-hp/secure, with a http not https, so I believe your secured path would be a http and shibboleth works with https.

Common errors are:

  • EntityId typo: but that is not your case
  • metadata file path mistake: but that too is not your case
  • SP configuration in IdP side: you got to check that, too.
