QA » openQA Project

The OpenID auth mechanism openQA uses is based on Net::OpenID::Consumer, which time to time seems to fail logging in, bailing out that the received message is not openid data (https://metacpan.org/source/WROG/Net-OpenID-Consumer-1.18/lib/Net/OpenID/Consumer.pm#L428).

We either need to:

• Investigate if the culprit is the OpenID provider, Net::OpenID::Consumer misconfiguration or Net::OpenID::Consumer itself
• If the latter, investigate alternatives (e.g. Net::OpenID::Consumer::Lite)
• Either we do not find good alternatives, we could implement a fallback or 'try again' to login before actually bailing out
• as last resort, Subclass/Extend Net::OpenID::Consumer or develop an internal equivalent (tested at least, since Net::OpenID::Consumer testsuite is all mocked)
