Why spring-saml-extension and adfs 2.0 return a 403 error?

I don't know what am I missing about configuring spring-saml-extension and adfs. I did everything as mentioned in this guide, but IIS returns me a 403 forbidden error with this message:

You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.

Is there anything else I need to do on IIS?

Well,

after hours researching about this I found what the problem was.

There is an ISAPI filter on

IIS -> Default Web Site

that was redirecting request to another place.

I got this by enabling httpErrors to DetailedMode:

C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv>appcmd.exe set config "Default Web Site" /section:httpErrors /errorMode:Detailed

Then, when I entered to /adfs/ls/idpinitiatedsignon.aspx, ISS throwed this screen: Http Error 403.18 - Forbidden

For more information about this, I would recomenend to see throbleshoot ISS errors like a pro

So, what I did was to remove that filter at

IIS -> Default Web Site -> ISAPI Filters

and it finally worked :)

Thanks @admdrew and @Vladimir for your help.
