SAML Configuration to a custom IDP Provider

[Prem Kumar]

Hi Everybody,

Can anyone point to a documentation apart from the below links for SAML integration with AWX v15.0.0. ?

1. Using SAML with Ansible Tower 

2. 21. Setting up Enterprise Authentication — Ansible Tower Administration Guide v3.8.1

3. Configuring Ansible Tower/AWX with RedHat SSO / Keycloak - Network / Cloud Systems Engineer (josh-tracy.github.io)

 

Reason is that while trying to setup SAML with IDP as SimpleSAMLPHP, while providing SAML Service Provider Public Certificate & Private Key, post update of the two, I get an error as "{ "SOCIAL_AUTH_SAML_SP_PRIVATE_KEY": [ "Invalid certificate or key: MIIEwgIBADANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAASCBKwwggSoAgEAAoIBAgDiKBmyl..." ] }". 

Also the SAML Service Provider Metadata URL loads with an error "MissingBackend at /sso/metadata/saml/".  This issue was reported longtime back SAML auth: Missing backend "saml" entry · Issue #715 · ansible/awx (github.com) .

I'm badly stuck in this configuration and making no headway. Any help is appreciated.  

Thanks,

PremKumar
