Simplesaml changed their config - auth/saml

[PiersHarding]

As reported by Tomas Gudmundsson:
Rather this is a change in requirements of simplesaml. I just set up simplesaml 1.8 and mahara 1.4.0 with the folder updated from the git repo in trunk, folder : htdocs/auth/saml/.

Simplesaml changed their config and changed session.handler to store.type. I was getting errors from mahara auth saml, that session handler must not be phpsession, however it was null so I got the default message, maybe consider different messages for different errors?

Changed it, started memcache and changed line 91 in auth/saml/index.php to

$session_handler = $saml_config->getString('store.type', false);

Now I get this error message.
Mahara: Site unavailable

A nonrecoverable error occured. This probably means you have encountered a bug in the system
