Attention UK federation Participants using Shibboleth Identity Provider (IdP) with Jetty on Windows

Posted on Friday, 29 November 2024

The Jetty project has announced the end of life for Jetty version 11 is the end of this year. The Shibboleth project has worked diligently to provide Jetty 12 for use with Shibboleth IdP version 5. Please ensure you upgrade from Jetty 11 to Jetty 12 before January 1, 2025.

If you installed Shibboleth IdP v5 using the standard installation, refer to the Jetty on Windows Installation for the latest Jetty 12 download and update instructions, prepared by the Shibboleth Project.

Before upgrading, we strongly recommend backing up your system, such as taking a snapshot of the virtual machine running your IdP.

For those running any version of Shibboleth IdP earlier than 5, you need to upgrade your environment.

If you have further questions not covered by the links above, then please contact the UK Federation helpdesk.
