[Xerte] Shibbolising XOT

[Bruce Jackson]

Hello,

We're trying to get Shibboleth working as a method of authentication here.

>From a thread on this forum back in November 2010 (
http://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/pipermail/xerte/2010-November/007360.html),
and from reading the comments in the integration.txt file, it appears it
should be a fairly simple case of editing integration.txt to set the three
variables ($_SESSION['toolkits_firstname'], $_SESSION['toolkits_surname']
and $_SESSION['toolkits_logon_username']) to values obtained from the
Shibboleth IdP, adding a call "session_start()" at the beginning of the
script, and then renaming integration.txt to be index.php.

When I do that and try to log in, the page I get back appears to have a
chunk of html missing at the start - see below.
Should I be copying parts of the standard index.php script into the
integration.txt version?

Returned html:
