I was transferred to a new project based on php so I’ve spent last week building my php skills. Today I wanted to make a login page based on google account. It looked like LightOpenID will suffice but I can’t get their example to work. Whatever I try I always get “User has not logged in.”. It seems to me that validation is always returning false although when I sign in on Google and return to my page I can see data in that GET request with the openid.claimed_id and more parameters.
Since I’m behind company proxy, I’ve also run this on aws but no luck.
Do I need to configure my server in any way to enable this, cause it should work. Some PHP or Apache configuration? I’m putting my ip in constructor since I don’t have a domain but that is only for show I think anyway.
It turns out I needed to install curl. A simple apt-get install php5-curl did the trick. I’ve paid a price to my php n00bness I guess.
