Take for instance I have a wiki as a provider (wikiA) and another wiki as a consumer (wikiB). wikiA only acts as a provider, and wikiB acts as a consumer, but is forced to use wikiA as a provider ($wgOpenIDConsumerForce = http://wikiA.example.org). Currently this is impossible since the OpenID extension, when used as a provider, only does discovery on a user-per-user basis by providing user page URLs. The extension should provide a discovery URL that does the following: 1. If a user is currently logged in, it should return the user's openid information 2. If a user is not logged in, it should redirect to the login page. When the user logs in, it should redirect back, which should return the openid information.
Tyler, would you be able to take a look at this as well? Ryan says it's a blocker for using a paste app he'd like to install (as is bug 40067).
"OpenID as a provider As time goes on we want to tie more web service authentication to Labs' LDAP. It would be ideal to make labsconsole an OpenID provider so that services in Labs can use the same authentication source. OpenID as a provider on labsconsole is blocked by bugs 40068 and 40067." http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Labs/Account_creation_improvement_project
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 25771 ***
This is not a duplicae of bug 25771. Bug 25771 is regarding OpenID as a consumer in MediaWiki and this bug is regarding OpenID as a provider in MediaWiki.
I'm not sure why this doesn't work, but this patch is supposed to fix this: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/45554 Maybe somebody can find what I'm doing wrong.
Can you add/test it in the openid-wiki instance on labs? I've added you to the project. The code is at /srv/mediawiki and can be accessed by: http://openid-wiki.instance-proxy.wmflabs.org/wiki
Ryan, Tyler: Stop. I already have edited this version ! it's a "self-service" according to your chat yesterday - and not good to have two developers acting on the same instance.

Then what about assigning that bug to yourself so others don't feel that nobody is looking into it? ;)
overlooked, that the bug wasn't assigned. ty
