Issue
A user successfully authenticates to the application portal, but when they click on an application, an error is displayed in the portal:
 
Application appears to be improperly configured. Contact your Administrator for assistance.
Cause
The Administration Console application SAML configuration has incorrectly specified the Identity Provider URL with an incorrect upper case URL, as shown here:
Identity Provider URL field

To investigate this error, an administrator can view the IDR's /var/log/symplified/symplified.log which can be obtained as described in the article on how to Generate and Download an Identity Router Log Bundle. 

The symplified.log will contain an error similar to: 
2016-08-25/20:21:50.901/UTC [ajp-apr-8009-exec-8] ERROR com.symplified.service.appliance.idp.IdPServlet[92] - 
Unexpected exception thrown by IdP service:
com.symplified.service.appliance.idp.AssertionCreationException: 
No application associated with the request
Resolution
Ensure that the application's Identity Provider URL configuration uses a valid all lower-case hostname.
