when we click "Logout" button, we are getting the error message as "could not validate SAML Response". Also it says that logout happened successfully. I attached the saml properties and also SSO properties.
When the check box is checked for the property "Sign LogoutRequest. Set this property to true if the Identity Provider's SingleLogoutRequest service requires signed LogoutRequest.", it throws an error message as "could not validate SAML Response".
When the checkbox is not checked, it displays the error message as "An error occurred. Contact your administrator for more information.".
I attached the screenshot as well.

Hi,
It is related to certificate, could you check if its not a expiration problem ?
Take a look here : Troubleshooting SAML and Updating Certificates

We don't have any problem with the certification expiration date. Also its a PEM certificate.

Seems issue is with your "The base URL to the Identity Provider's SingleLogoutRequest service" URL.
Try to resolve this URL directly on your browser .if you got same error then check with your company Authentication team who provided this.

For the Property "When SAML 2.0 single sign-on fails because the session is not authenticated..." you have the /IdpInitiatedSignon.aspx?login..... on the URL but shouldn't. Just make it:
https://adfs-dev.altria.com/adfs/ls/
For the two "URl to redirect users" properties you have logout_success.do and external_logout_complete.do but these are default ServiceNow pages. Leave those two properties blank.
The first one is likely your problem, but the redirect properties may also be the culprit.
Edit: someone else mentioned the SingleLogout property. I've seen a lot of people have trouble trying to set this up, and even saw some comments from implementers that say they've never seen it work. Do you really want it configured? What that property does is tells ADFS to log the user out of ALL sessions in ALL apps, not just ServiceNow.
