I’m getting the following error in my debug.log file everytime I load a page: SimpleSAMLphp base directory does not exist: I just want to leverage the bundled OneLogin SAML library. Can you please surpress this error? Hi, I’m sorry for the delay in response. We’re publishing a release that will resolve this in the first couple weeks of January. This is the same issue as reported here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simplesamlphp-base-directory-missing-error/ We are tracking internally as SITE-5427 Hi @tekfused , as replied in a similar topic here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simplesamlphp-base-directory-missing-error/ , the new release should remove this error log. Let us know if you encounter any unexpected error logs.
