thx for the reply

BUT

same certificate is used to sign the response and the assertion

seems an issue that no link can be made between <ds:Reference URI="#_aa74bc13d9a528eb65bfdb5165831391"> and AssertionID="_aa74bc13d9a528eb65bfdb5165831391", perhaps this is a namespace issue?? (see below for a snippet)

thx a lot

That's irrelevant.

It's either signed with a different key that isn't being passed in the
message, or the code producing the signature is broken in some way.
