Version 2.8.6 is six years old. In version 3.5.0 we made a breaking change to SAML configuration syntax to make the specification of certificates more flexible.
The SAML configuration you’ve specified follows the new syntax. You need to use the old syntax associated with v2.8.6 or, better yet, upgrade to the latest version.
You’ll find examples of the old syntax with the example projects that ship with v2.8.6. Also, the syntax is documented in the Developer Guide.
Below is part of the saml.config for the v2.8.6 ExampleServiceProvider project.

Thank you very much for your quick reply. I will check the syntax. I am interested to use the new version . Could you able to send the instruction for how to do I get the new version 3.5.0 .That will be really great.
You’re welcome. I’ve replied to you via email.
