example_setup - no service providers listed after login to IDP

[georgep7n]

This is based on the code in master on 2/11/2022.

I followed the example_setup instructions to create the docker containers and they both started up. No problems there. I created the superuser and then tried to do IdP initiated login. I was able to login to the IDP with the superuser and saw the list of user attributes but there was no link at the bottom of the page to perform a login to the SP. I could chase this down further if there was a suggestion on what to look at.

My observation should be straightforward to reproduce just based on following the instructions and trying an IdP-initiated login.

Thank you, this is a great project, along with djangosaml2.

Looked into this a bit further, the service provider table doesn't have any rows in it (so no service provider configuration). Maybe the example_setup needs to be updated due to the change in the latest release in 2020 which moved the service provider configuration to the DB, to include inserting the service provider metadata into the _serviceprovider table.

I tried adding a service provider from the admin interface and pasting in the metadata xml locally from localhost:8000/saml2/metadata (putting the metadata url into the remote URL field didn't work for some reason). After I saved this record then the link at the bottom of the login page to perform a login to the SP showed up. Clicking on that though gives me an UnknownSystemEntity error. Not sure why.

I may grab the code from the last release before the 2020 one and see if that makes a difference.

I got the example working with the 0.6.3 idp and 0.7.X sp

Just in case anyone else has problems using the docker example. I upped pysaml2 to 7.1.2. When using the remote fetch url, make sure to use http://sp:8000/saml2/metadata/ and that all configurations mirrors the SP settings. requests_signed: true ... You can find them in sp/settings.py. Else you can always go to http://localhost:8000/saml2/metadata/ and copy the xml and paste it under the remote url. You also have to create a user account with the same name in you SP, otherweise you get access denied, IDP only handles authentication not authorization.
