> including the original developer who wrote it, could figure out how to configure it properly Oh, Scott knows how to configure it, the problem is he's the only one. I'm a developer at the university works/created it at, and anything that needs to use shibb goes through him. Fortunately, he manages all the configuration (I'm assuming because no one else here knows how), requesting shibb for a new site or whatever is dreaded. It's almost a rite of passage for devs to get a scathing email back from him (almost always in less that 5 minutes) because your request wasn't filled out correctly, the worst part is he will only tell you what you screwed up and not give much help (or any) as to how fix it, and then indirectly (or I've heard directly too) to not waste his time. As a user, shibb isn't really that bad. As a developer, I hate it so much. Scott, from what I can tell, is a strictly Java developer. So that means we're stuck with Apache and a shitload of XML, there exists a module on GitHub to integrate shibb with Nginx which I think literally every dev here I've talked to would love to be using rather than Apache, but that's probably not going to happen here unfortunately. And Apache with all the XML crap wouldn't be all that terrible if the documentation wasn't extremely vague or just plain missing. I wanted to get some extra information about the user on signin that, according to the docs, would be available but wasn't clear enough that I felt I could just go in to even our staging servers and monkey around with. So, I figured I throw together some docker containers tinker with before I did it on anything real. It took me an entire week, to get a working shibb setup in docker since the docs literally only got me as far as getting things installed before they stopped being helpful. But, I'm now the only one in my department (at least) that knows how to get shibb up from scratch -- but I wouldn't trust it outside development. Apologies for the rant, but shibb is probably my least favorite thing I have to deal with here -- when you hear the guy that made it works here, you'd at least think we'd get some good/helpful information about it from the source, but he seems quite happy being the only one that knows anything about it.
