HttpSession returned null object for SPRING_SECURITY_CONTEXT

Question

I\'m trying to integrate the Spring Saml library in a sample webapplication, using Shibboleth as IDP. I\'m able to load the login page, to login and to show the index page.<

Answer 1

I've experienced the same problem. After debugging realized that SecurityContext is cleared before it's persisted. After googling I found this: https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SEC-2027 Moving to spring security version 3.1.2 solved it for me.

I hope it will help someone.
