  • Error on CLI with saml-sp create:

    • Error: command failed: [Job 10695] Job failed: SAML job failed, Reason: Failed to download data from URL https://auth.corp.net/FederationMetadata/2007-06/FederationMetadata.xml.Reason: SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK : SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate.
