I’m trying to use OmniAuth in a sinatra app with google as the login

  • 0

I’m trying to use OmniAuth in a sinatra app with google as the login provider. Using the twitter and facebook providers work fine:

require 'omniauth'
require 'openid'
require 'openid/store/filesystem'


use OmniAuth::Builder do
use OmniAuth::Strategies::OpenID, OpenID::Store::Filesystem.new('./tmp'), :name => 'google', :identifier => 'https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/id'  
end

get '/sign_in'
  redirect '/auth/google'
end

Thoughts? When the browser tries to get ‘/auth/google’, it gets a 503 – Service Unavailable. There is nothing in the heroku logs

Thoughts or suggestions on what this might be?

I just started a bounty on this question – what I’m hoping for is a sample implementation that works on heroku.


I increased the log level on heroku. Here is what I’m getting now:

    The page at https://github.com/intridea/omniauth/wiki/OpenID-and-Google-Apps gives two possible solutions:

    On Heroku you can change the path to “./tmp” or use Memcached.

    It seems like you already tried the Memcached solution – do you have a Memcached instance running and properly setup on Heroku?
