In order to use this module in your Apache installation, you need to
add the following to your httpd.conf file:
LoadModule auth_mellon_module lib/httpd/mod_auth_mellon.so
If upgrading from version prior 0.14.0, please note the following
backward-incompatible change:
* This version switches the default signature algorithm used when
signing messages from rsa-sha1 to rsa-sha256. If your IdP does not
allow messages to be signed with that algorithm, you need to add a
setting switching back to the old algorithm:
MellonSignatureMethod rsa-sha1
Note that this only affects messages sent from mod_auth_mellon to your
IdP. It does not affect authentication responses or other messages
sent from your IdP to mod_auth_mellon.
If upgrading from version prior 0.6.0, please note the following
backward-incompatible changes:
* The POST replay functionality has been disabled by default, and the
automatic creation of the MellonPostDirectory target directory has been
removed. If you want to use the POST replay functionality, create a
directory accessible only by the apache user (e.g.: /var/spool/mellon)
and add this after the LoadModule for mod_auth_mellon.so:
MellonPostDirectory /var/spool/mellon
* Start discovery service when accessing the login endpoint. We used
to bypass the discovery service in this case, and just pick the first
IdP. This has been changed to send a request to the discovery service
instead, if one is configured.
* The MellonLockFile default path has been changed to:
/var/run/mod_auth_mellon.lock
This only affects platforms where a lock file is required and
where Apache doesn't have write access to that directory during
startup. (Apache can normally create files in that directory
during startup.)
