Authlogic OpenID integration
- by Craig
I'm having difficulty getting OpenId authentication working with Authlogic. It appears that the problem arose with changes to the open_id_authentication plugin. From what I've read so far, one needs to switch from using gems to using plugins.
Here's what I done thus far to get Authlogic-OpenID integration working:
Removed relevant gems:
authlogic
authlogic-oid
rack-openid
ruby-openid *
Installed, configured, and started the authlogic sample application (http://github.com/binarylogic/authlogic_example)--works as expected. This required:
installing the authlogic (2.1.3) gem ($ sudo gem install authlogic)
adding a dependency (config.gem "authlogic") to the environment.rb file.
added migration to add open-id support to User model; ran migration; columns added as expected
made changes to the UsersController and UserSessionsController to use blocks to save each.
made changes to new user-sessions view to support open id (f.text_field :openid_identifier)
installed open_id_authentication plugin ($ script/plugin install git://github.com/rails/open_id_authentication.git)
installed the authlogic-oid plugin ($ script/plugin install git://github.com/binarylogic/authlogic_openid.git)
installed the plugin ($ script/plugin install git://github.com/glebm/ruby-openid.git)
restarted mongrel (CTRL-C; $ script/server)
Mogrel failed to start, returning the following error:

I suspect this is related the rack-openid gem, but as it was dependent upon the ruby-openid gem, it was removed when the ruby-openid gem was removed. Perhaps this can be installed as a plugin.
Any assistance with this matter is greatly appreciated--I'm just about to give up on OpenId integration.
* ruby-openid (2.1.2) is installed at /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8. I'm not certain if this is affecting anything. In any case, I'm not sure how to uninstall it or if I should.
** edit **
It appears that there are a number of gems in the /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems directory that may be causing an issue:
authlogic-oid (1.0.4)
rack-openid (1.0.3)
ruby-openid (2.1.7)
Questions:
- why doesn't the gem list command list these gems?
- Why doesn't the gem uninstall command remove these gems?
