SAML authentication with View


I have a strange issue with connecting to View desktops (with View Client or browser) from Horizon workspace.  I cannot use my AD account to gain access.  I am able to use my account to login to View desktop directly from client.  I just can't get to it when going through workspace.  However, I am able have View desktop working with Workspace when I use a test AD account.  The view log has this error:

1) What version is this? 1.5?

2) Did you make userPrincipalName as required in the user attributes page on the connector page when provisioning users?

3) In any case, can you check the time syncronization on ALL your environment? (AD, VAs in Workspace, etc etc).

I have exactly same problem with Workspace 1.5

Time synchonization is within 1 sec.

Did You Enable SAML authentication on all of your Connection servers to point for the gateway-va ?

Time Sync resolved my issue, ran the following command on my connection servers and security server.

net time \\<DC_NAME_OR_IP> /set /y
