Re: [Staffslug] Shibboleth IDP on ubuntu 10.4 LTS deployment of war

Hi, i am new to the group, so apologies for hijacking a previous thread I am running ubuntu 10.4 LTS , hosting my schools website, moodle server, mahara and drupal. My local authority is having issues providing me with shibboleth authentication so i have decided to go it alone. My machine authenticate against all users on my microsoft network, as i am testing squirrelmail at the moment, and my students host websites on this linux server too. Using the LDAP username and password. I am therefore trying to configure Shibboleth IDP on this machine, i seem to have followed the instructions below (i can only find them for tomcat 5.5 - whilst i have tomcat 6 natively installed) "http://www.edugate.ie/workshop-guides/shibboleth-2-identity-provider-installation-linux-debian-or-ubuntu" I am unable to deploy my IDP WAR file correctly or i think that is the issue it keeps telling me the context path is incorrect. "FAIL - Application at context path /idp could not be started". I know its quite a specific error. Any help would be appreciated
