Our company is planning on migrating to authenticating with SAML, so I am doing the tutorial using a sample demo to understand how to implement saml using the spring framework and Okta. I am following the tutorial (here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBtyGfrz-jA), but when I get to the part implementing the SecurityConfiguration (~5:09 of the video), it throws an error with the code:
import static org.springframework.security.extensions.saml2.config.SAMLConfigurer.saml;
When I try building the project it throws:
com/example/SecurityConfiguration.java:[3,67] package org.springframework.security.extensions.saml2.config does not exist
com/example/SecurityConfiguration.java:[3,1] static import only from classes and interfaces
com/example/SecurityConfiguration.java:[39,20] cannot find symbol
I think the problem is with maven importing the wrong jar file, but I've tried many different versions of org.springframework.security.extensions, but none allows the SecurityConfiguration.java to find the saml() method.
Here is the pom.xml file:
