Message: A request was received that identified itself as a WS-Federation Passive Requestor Profile (WS-F PRP) sign-in message, but the message does not fit the profile of any supported message.

User Action
If you are using non-Microsoft federation software in your environment, verify that the federation software is compatible with AD FS.

Resolve

Use compatible federation software with AD FS

If you are using non-Microsoft federation software in your environment, check that the federation software is compatible with Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS). For software to be compatible with AD FS it must comply with the WS-Federation Passive Requestor Profile (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=89387).

Verify
