Hi Colin,

what about the cloud? we are in almost 2021… any updated on how to fix the SAML issue for SonarQube behind AWS ELB or ALB?

Best,

Phillip

Greetings Philip,

Feel free to start a new thread describing the issues you face in detail. This topic was related to IIS.

Hi Colin,

FYI - SAML Authentication Issue after Updating to v8.4 (AWS ELB Elastic Load Balancer)

One other thing I wanted to add in regards to the article posted by @Colin. I implemented this solution previously. When I upgraded from v8.1 to v8.6 and found I also was getting the error mentioned in Colin’s post and as mentioned in this one. Upon searching for the solution, I discovered his post and decided to implement the second piece of the his solution only, since I had previously implemented the Server Variable part of it, in my initial IIS implementation mentioned above. Upon doing so, I still got the error. I then decided to change the previous implementation of the Server Variable from X_FORWARDED_PROTO to HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO and it turns out this did the trick. So it seems it is very important to keep this naming structure exactly as mentioned in Colin’s post. As soon as I did this, everything worked as expected with SAML. Thanks for the tips @Colin.
