Trusted Roots Are Not Imported into the Appropriate Trusted Root Containers
When the trusted roots are not imported into the appropriate trusted root containers, a certificate
exception is thrown and an untrusted certificate message is logged. In the following log entries, the
Embedded Service Provider is requesting metadata from the Identity Server, but the Embedded
Service Provider does not trust the Identity Server certificate because the trusted root of the issuer of
the Identity Server certificate is not in the Embedded Service Provider’s trusted root container.

The Server Certificate Has an Invalid Subject Name
When the certificate has an invalid subject name, the handshake fails. In the log entries below, the
Embedded Service Provider is requesting metadata from the Identity Server. The server certificate
name does not match, so the Embedded Service Provider is unable to authenticate and get the
metadata necessary to establish the trusted relationship.

15.2.6 Testing Whether the Provider Can Access the Metadata
To test whether the metadata is available for download, enter the metadata URL of the identity
provider and service provider. If the DNS name of the identity provider is
idpcluster.lab.novell.com
, open a browser at the Identity Server and enter the following URL:
https://idpcluster.lab.novell.com:8443/nidp/idff/metadata
