OpenSAML user discussion

[Manuela Stanica <>]

Well, I haven't made any changes and just checked out the last openSAML 
2 revision from  the SVN to make sure, but I still get the same error 
message while trying to load the saml2-metadata configuration file. The 
problem seems to appear in the validateConfiguration() method in the 
Configuration class, and says: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: 
UndeclaredPrefix: Cannot resolve 'saml2md:AttributeAuthorityDescriptor' 
as a QName: the prefix 'saml2md' is not declared. I think it's the same 
one I got yesterday.

There is one other things I encountered while attempting to unmarshall a 
SAML 2 metadata test document. (I did the test after having registered 
builders and unmarshallers manually for now.)  The test document 
contains <AttributeValue> elements as children of a <saml: Attribute> 
element. At this point, the unmarshallChildElement() method of 
org.opensaml.xml.io.AbstractXMLObjectUnmarshaller  tries to find an 
unmarshaller for the <AttributeValue> element but openSAML doesn't 
provide one... so an exception appears. (It all works fine when I take 
out the AtrbuteValue elements from the test document.)

Thanks a lot for your help.
Manuela
