In my case, despite getting warnings on startup that the settings are 
"deprecated and scheduled to be removed", the are in fact needed...

2026-07-15 15:35:52,455 WARN 
[org.apereo.cas.metadata.CasConfigurationPropertiesValidator] - <
The following settings are deprecated and scheduled to be removed in future 
releases of CAS. Please review the replacement settings where applicable 
and update your configuration accordingly.

- Deprecated Property: 
cas.authn.pac4j.core.session-replication.cookie.crypto = N/A
- Deprecated Property: cas.authn.pac4j.core.session-replication.cookie = N/A
- Deprecated Property: cas.authn.pac4j.core.session-replication = N/A>

You must still have these settings populated, or you get the error I posted 
when trying to use Entra, and probably other delegated auth providers...

cas.authn.pac4j.core.session-replication.cookie.crypto.signing.key=
cas.authn.pac4j.core.session-replication.cookie.crypto.encryption.key=

Thank you,
Matt
