Hi,

okay, next up in the list of things Android doesn't like: does your CAT
profile have more than one root CA listed? Up until the most recent
versions of Android, only one root CA could be installed. So if there is
more than one to choose from, you might have gotten the unlucky pick.

The realm check feature is available from the IdP overview page: once
you have a profile which is fully configured, the button "Check realm
reachability" becomes clickable. It is directly below the "Installer
Fine-Tuning ..." button inside the profile box.

Note that you have to entered the actual realm in the profile properties
- the realm is not strictly necessary to enable installer generation,
but it is needed if we are supposed to run checks against the realm,
obviously.

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
