Using SimpleSAMLphp in symfony with composer

Question

I would like to implement the SimpleSamlPHP bundle in my symfony project But, I'm having some issues with the redirect after the login.

Let me explain a little:

I have loaded "simplesamlphp/simplesamlphp" in my composer. So, the bundle sits in the vendor directory.

Then I wrote my own bundle where I configured the simplesaml, made controllers with login actions,...

Everything works (in the sense that I effectively have a button that redirects to the Idp (I configured) and does its thing). But then I get redirected to: http://BASEURL/module.php/saml/sp/saml2-acs.php/IDENTIFIER, which it does not find, because the files are in the vendor bundle.

When reading the documentation carefully, I saw that the baseUrl should point to the simplesaml package. But, because that package is in the vendor, I can't do that.

Is there a way to still use the simpleSAMLphp bundle or do I need to look for a symfony bundle to use simpleSAML?

Thank you.

I had similar issues, and just to not bother with it (why mix and prix two different systems, I soft linked from the public direcory of my FW to the www folder of the simplesaml, and from then on, two separate systems live happily together. — Itay Moav -Malimovka

I highly recommend you to give a try to : https://www.lightsaml.com

I've tried to do a simple IDP / SP service and it works pretty well and straightforward. Along that I find the website examples also well written so you can start with a base.

If still want to use simplesaml search for "simplesamlphp-bundle" in packagist.org there is at least 3 packages that bundlify this and can help you out to set it up.
