Bug Description
We're standing up Mahara 17.02 on RHEL 7 with PHP 5.6.5 and MariaDB 10.1. We're setting up integration with a Moodle 3.1 environment. This Moodle environment uses CAS for authentication, with login required. There is no default view for unauthenticated users. When we added Moodle as a peer for Mahara (in Mahara), it tried and failed to validate the existence of the Moodle environment:
[WAR] 32 (lib/peer.php:164) file_get_contents(https:/
On the Moodle side I can see numerous redirects to /login/index.php.
Oddly, SSO from Moodle to Mahara now seems to work, despite the verification failure. I wouldn't have expected that, and that might be a bug in itself.
Charles, do you mean Mahara 17.04.2? There is no 17.02. ;-)
Which MNet direction are you setting up? Mahara to Moodle or Moodle to Mahara? Your bug report seems to include both whereas you should only use one or the other.
The usual setup is Moodle to Mahara.
