Thank you for all your assistance. I did have two root CA's listed so I
removed one, leaving the one that I most often see in the chain. I went to
the Check Realm feature and my live login test come back successful. When I
look at more details I can see my server certificate details as well with no
errors if I'm looking at it correctly.

However I'm still having issues with the Androids I'm testing with. I removed
the eduroam profile and even cleared the install certificates on the devices.
After using the eduroam CAT play store tool and install my schools profile I
get the authentication problem :-(

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
