Hi Eve,

Thank you for your response.  Yes, if you could, please send me a sanitized
version of your shibboleth2.xml

I've tried making the couple config changes that you've mentioned, but I
keep seeing the same *access denied* message in the error log.

*Module configuration*
*Shibboleth login handler URL:*
https://stage.qdr.org/Shibboleth.sso/Login
*Shibboleth logout handler URL:*
https://stage.qdr.org/Shibboleth.sso/Logout

All other settings are default.

Thanks,
Alex
