Deploy SimpleSAMLPHP
Download SimpleSAMLPHP
Download SimpleSAMLPHP from https://simplesamlphp.org/ This tutorial is based on version 1.13.
Deploy SimpleSAMLPHP
Uncompress the SimpleSAMLPHP to a logical directory. It should not be within the your web server's public directory. I recommend /var/lib/simplesamlphp on UNIX style system.
Expose SimpleSAMLPHP Web Interface
Make an web server alias or use a symbolic link (if available) from {WebServerRoot}/simplesaml/ to /var/lib/simplesamlphp/www
Set Admin Interface Password (Recommended)
By default, the SimpleSAMLPHP interface has an admin interface that will be available to the outside world. An admin should make sure there is at least a password protecting it's interface. Make sure to read the file {SimpleSAML Directory}/config/config.php to secure the deployment.
