Shadow pass completely white? (HDRI illumination)

I'm trying to render a picture with HDRI illumination, no sun.

There is no floor as the view is fit to the HDR background. But without floor there is no shadow on the ground. So I'd like to add the shadow afterwards, if possible.

I tried to render a picture with the floor enabled but only showing the shadow. that's not possible.
But if I only render the Objects in one picture and try to render the objects and the floor with the shadow pass enabled (no rgb pass) then the picture is completely white.

What do I do wrong and how to do it correct so I can have the objects with the HDRI background + the shadow.

Hello Forum members and Maxwell user, the same problem I also.
Is this a bug or must you consider something at?

Thank you for your help.
