Laravel SAML (laravel-saml2) - Config Issues

I'm trying to get SSO working on an application, first time doing anything with this type of thing and falling at first hurdle.

Hi.

Having some basic issues getting started here. Not totally sure where I am going wrong.

Trying to use https://github.com/aacotroneo/laravel-saml2; Running Laravel 5.4 on a development WAMPserver; installed the package fine, added provider and alias information to config/app.php as per all instructions.

If I try to publish the config file, I get no action, no error, just "Publishing Complete" in composer.

I can copy the saml2_settings.php file to the config directory from the provider directory, and set the parameters there instead, however no routes work - trying to get the metadata via /saml2/metadata url just gives me a 404.

Any ideas - new to SAML but this seems just like a standard installation issue.

Thanks
