Login is not creating a user [#3280970]

Problem/Motivation

Currently I am able to login to my Shibboleth server at /Shibboleth.sso/Login, and it redirects me back to my website. It does not create or login as a Drupal user.

I have installed the basicshib module and configured it to the best of my knowledge. I am confident my username and mail attributes are correct. I am less confident about "Session attribute." My Shibboleth session shows an attribute called persistent-id, so that's my best guess and I have tried that, but I am open to any help with where else to look in case I am doing that wrong.

I have changed the option in basicshib.auth_filter.yml for create:allow to be true instead of false, and imported that configuration change. I believe that's what the description page means for what needs to happen.

I have spent hours looking for further documentation about what I might be missing, with no luck. Can anybody help with what else I need to do to get to the point that I can login with the SSO account and it will be linked to a new or existing Drupal account?

I have also tried this with version 2.0 now and several other things from different Apache configuration options to disabling security modules that I thought could be blocking it. There's no change in the behaviour. That suggests that this is a support/documentation request, not a bug. Anybody out there have any ideas?

We were having this same issue initially. Our mistake was setting allow to true after the install instead of before. I uninstalled the module and reinstalled it with that value changed to true beforehand and now it successfully creates new Drupal users when someone logs in with Shibboleth.
