ADFS 4.0 fail to redirect success IDP logon

I have configured AD FS on a Windows 2016 server to authenticate against a national IDP. I get a successfully logon from the IDP, but when I Return to the ADFS server fails to redirect to my web site...

    Because it fails with the crypto issue, my guess would be:

    1. They are using token encryption

    2. They used the wrong certificate to encrypt the token

    As a result, ADFS cannot parse the SAML structure properly. I have seen that in the past. Many third party IDP assume that ADFS is using the same certificate for token signature and token encryption. But that's not the case. Contact them and make them double check their configuration (ensure they are using the right certificate for the right purpose).
