getInstitutions return null in AggCatSampleApp

Question

I download sample app for Customer Account Data API I added war file to Tomcat. I could login, however, getInstitutions is returning null. I added Oauth user key, user secret and SAML id provider Id in SampleApp.properties file.

contents of intuit-aggcat-config.xml, errors from Tomcat and http headers are pasted below

=================intuit-aggcat-config.xml looks like this==============
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<intuit-config>
    <saml>
        <keystoreFile>e:\intuit\keystore.jks</keystoreFile>
        <keystorePassword>mypassword</keystorePassword>
        <keyPassword>mypassword</keyPassword>
        <certAlias>somealias</certAlias>
        <oAuthUrl>https://oauth.intuit.com/oauth/v1/get_access_token_by_saml</oAuthUrl>
    </saml>
</intuit-config>

Make sure both your intuit-aggcat-config.xml and keystore (you have it in e:\intuit\keystore.jks) are in your classpath (your build classes folder would do the trick). I'm sure you've already noticed that error reporting is not too informative - you'll need to do your own logging or outputting. Add some old school debugging to your WebUtil.java class like this to make sure your properties file is being read:

public AggCatService getAggCatService(String userId){

    AggCatService service = null;
    try{
        System.out.println("Authorizing:");
        System.out.println("  OUTH_CONSUMER_KEY: " + OAUTH_CONSUMER_KEY);
        System.out.println("  OAUTH_CONSUMER_SECRET :" + OAUTH_CONSUMER_SECRET);
        System.out.println("  SAML_PROVIDER_ID :" + SAML_PROVIDER_ID);
        System.out.println("  User ID :" + userId);
        OAuthAuthorizer oauthAuthorizer = new OAuthAuthorizer(OAUTH_CONSUMER_KEY, OAUTH_CONSUMER_SECRET, SAML_PROVIDER_ID,userId);
        System.out.println("OATH: " + oauthAuthorizer.toString());
        Context context = new Context(oauthAuthorizer);
        service= new AggCatService(context);
        System.out.println("Service: " + service.toString());

    }
    catch(AggCatException ex){
        System.out.println("Failed to authorize");
        System.out.println(ex.getMessage());
    }
    return service;

}

And add this (and call it) to make sure the intuit-aggcat-config.xml is being read as well:

public void status()
{
    System.out.println("Classpath = " + System.getProperty("java.class.path"));
    System.out.println("Working Directory = " + System.getProperty("user.dir"));
    System.out.println("Keystore File = " + Config.getProperty("saml.keystoreFile"));
    System.out.println("Keystore Password = " + Config.getProperty("saml.keystorePassword"));
    System.out.println("Key Password = " + Config.getProperty("saml.keyPassword"));
    System.out.println("Cert Alias = " + Config.getProperty("saml.certAlias"));
    System.out.println("Base URL = " + Config.getProperty("baseURL.aggcat"));
}

getInstitutions return null in AggCatSampleApp
