Shibboleth Developers

["Mahabalagiri, Datta" <>]

I can't get the metadata to reload upon file changes. I don't think it worked 
me in the previous version either.

        <MetadataProvider xsi:type="FilesystemMetadataProvider" 
xmlns="urn:mace:shibboleth:2.0:metadata"
                  id="custom"
                  metadataFile="/path-to-my-metadata/test-metadata.xml" />

Thanks.
Datta
