oc-1900 - user_openid does not work

[msrex]

From http://bugs.owncloud.org/thebuggenie/owncloud/issues/oc-1900

Am unable to reproduce. Was assigned to @bartv2.

Description:
The user_openid app does not seem to work. Adding it does not add a "login with open id" to the login page. It does not work as an openid provider either. Using user_openid_provider from the old gitorious repo works (though I had to make a recursive symlink as OC looks for the include file in apps/user_openid_provider/user_openid_provider/provider.php). With user_openid_provider, site authorizations are not saved properly. Furthermore all of it is completely undocumented.

Reproduction steps:
In Owncloud 4.5 beta 4, install user_openid, try to login from an openid site with http://domain.tld/owncloud/?username.

Additionally, the provider side needs to be able to bypass the forcessl configuration for the Open ID endpoint as many consumer websites do not allow self signed certificates. The provider must than redirect to https (if forcessl is true) for the actual user login.

This module should support Open ID 1.0 and 2.0 as well as SREG, AX and PAPE Open ID extensions, it should get the default data from the user's vcard (see issues/oc-1902), and should allow a user to customized what data is exposed.

Doesn't work for me neither but it would be great if it did. I tried the OpenID in Wordpress and it simply send me into my owncloud.

i don't know the currenct status, but

• user_openid is used to allow loggins with openid. url in username and password empty. this could use a better interface
• user_openid_provider to use owncloud to login on other sites

Just wanted to vote for fixing / re-activating the openid provider app.
Couldn´t get it to work with OC 5.0.0 but given the lack of documentation it didn´t even know how it´s meant to work...

I would like to log in to ownCloud first thing in the morning, pin it as app in my Browser an then log into the several Websites, I run and all the other services that offer OpenID. That would mean that I could disable my old stand-alone OpenID-service.

The cool thing is, that you can add meta-tags to your blog that refer to your OpenID, so you can use the short URL of your blog as Open ID. I do that and switching to ownCloud's Open ID service would simply mean to change the meta-tags accordingly.

Should be in the apps repo. Please reopen there if still broken.

user_openid does not seem to be in the app store, and it still seems to fail. It would be nice to bring user_openid back into owncloud 6.
