SimpleSAML Installation in Windows Apache

Say you want to install SimpleSAMLphp in windows Apache/Xampp. Let me tell you what I did so far:

  1. I have downloaded latest stable version from https://simplesamlphp.org/download and placed the unzipped file in Apache folder, i.e. C:\Apache24\simplesamlphp directory contains composer.json. I have downloaded dependencies as well.
  2. Now when I am going to setup the vhost as shows in the site 6. Configuring Apache section as
<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName localhost
        DocumentRoot C:/Apache24/htdocs


<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName service.example.com
        DocumentRoot C:/Apache24/service.example.com

        Alias /simplesaml C:/Apache24/simplesamlphp/www

  1. Changed the config file



Now I faced the problem: I am unable to open the Alias in browser. And running httpd.exe in browser shows error about the example.com does not exist.

Later I found that I was doing some mistake... I am going to add one vhost, rather in Windows Xampp, there is one file /xampp/apache/conf/extra/httpd-xampp.conf. Need to add one Alias below /phpmyadmin statement:

Alias /simplesaml "C:/xampp/simplesamlphp/www"
<Directory "C:/xampp/simplesamlphp/www">
        AllowOverride AuthConfig
        Require all granted
</Directory>

Now restart server and hit http://localhost/simplesaml/ and all you go...Enjoy you SAML!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All windows xampp users if faced configure simplesaml...might be helped.

Once before lockdown

It was the end of March 2020, and I was a little scared. I had a production movement planned, and for team integration, I must be present in the office. It’s a story of that day, which is nearly 1.5 months earlier, the Covid-19 lockdown already declared. And some of my colleagues decided to reach very early in the morning, finish everything, and then come back home. I was at the bus stop; few buses were coming and all of those will not go till the end destination. I unknowingly, almost step inside a bus, and the conductor ceased me, asking where I wanted to go. I got a kick and he told me that he’ll not go till SEZ area, and he warned me about the lockdown condition. With a half an hour waiting, thanks to God, I took a bus and got terrified just when I was in the middle of the crowd, I saw, mostly half of them had their masks on. I was getting more scared and already started remembering God. One of the Lady sitting in the front seat was talking to her mother, asking that br
