    Hello All,

     

    I am trying to implement a custom assertion generator plugin i.e. Plug in Class. The class seems to be loaded fine, but it's giving me below Value/error in the SMPS.log .

     

    Below is the sample code:-

    public class ClassName
    implements AssertionGeneratorPlugin
    {
    public boolean init(APIContext apiContext)
    throws Exception
    {
    apiContext.error("ClassName initialized.");
    return true;
    }

    public boolean release(APIContext apiContext)
    throws Exception
    {
    apiContext.error("ClassName unloaded.");
    return true;
    }

    public int customizeAssertion(APIContext apiContext, UserContext userContext, String pluginParam, String inputResponse, StringBuffer outputResponse)
    throws Exception
    {
    if ((inputResponse == null) || (inputResponse.equals("")))
    {
    apiContext.log("ClassName: No input assertion received:");
    return -1;
    }

     

    Values/Error in SMPS.Log:- 

    [17260/43][Tue Nov 07 2017 06:25:40][SmAuthUser.cpp:691][ERROR][sm-Server-02740] Classname initialized.
    [17260/43][Tue Nov 07 2017 06:25:40][SmAuthUser.cpp:685][INFO][sm-Server-03580] ClassName: No input assertion received:

     

    This means that the Plugin is loaded fine, hence could see Classname Initialized, but if ((inputResponse == null) || (inputResponse.equals(""))) is getting logged as ClassName: No input assertion received . Which seems that inputResponse is null and it's not receiving any SAML Assertion to edit, But i could see SAML assertion generated fine after authetication and strangely inputResponse is null.

     

    What could be possible reason for that?

     

    Your Help would be appreciated.

     

    Thank You

    Ankur

    Hi Ankur,

     

    Are you able to generate the SAML assertion without the Custom Assertion Generator ? Custom Assertion Generator needs the actual SAML Assertion to make additional changes to it via Custom Assertion Generator.

     

    I am sure you would have done the below but you can double check :

    1. Have you provided the Custom Assertion Generator JAR file path in JVMOptions.txt along with the dependent JARS ?

    2. Have you provided the Custom Assertion Generator JAR for the Plug-in Class in partnership.

     

    Thanks,

    Gopi

    Hello Gopi,

     

    Yes, it's working fine now. Able to get the Assertion plugin working. Yes, have updated JVMOptions.txt and Plug-in class in partnershipt.

     

    Thank you for your response!

    Hello Ujwol,

     

    Yes, it's working fine now. Able to get the Assertion plugin working. Enhanced logging a bit and could catch the error in parameters passed.

     

    Thanks!
