Windows Phone App with shibboleth - No browser window

Windows Phone App with shibboleth - No browser window

Hi

I downloaded the new app for Windows Phone. We use shibboleth authentication at our Moodle-Site.

The problem is that I don't get a browser window to log in. It works perfectly with the Android-app.

Any ideas?

Hi,

unfortunately, it seems that the base framework we use for the app (Phonegap/Cordova) doesn't support custom URL schemes in Windows 8 and Windows 8 apps

I've updated the docs:

https://docs.moodle.org/27/en/Moodle_Mobile_additional_features

And I'm going to create an issue to evaluate alternatives ways for doing SSO in Windows apps

Cheers, Juan

Hi,

the main problem is that the Phonegap plugin we used for handling custom URL schemes doesn't support Windows Phone 8 devices.

If anyone is willing to contribute, he can add support for WP8 improving this plugin:
