I have been trying to create an OpenID version of Auth.

I stumbled upon a very puzzling behavior that I think may be an
underlying consequence of using exec. I do not know for sure though
because the bug is very strange.

First the setup. I am using hcvst's openid provider so I can test
locally.

However, if I try to use it by using the OpenID auth:
http://127.0.0.1:8000/cas/default/user/login

then the provider address: http://127.0.0.1:8000/provider/openid/id/test

will complain:

  File "C:/Users/admin/Desktop/web2py/applications/provider/
controllers/openid.py", line 7, in <module>
    from w2popenid import Web2pyFetcher
ImportError: cannot import name Web2pyFetcher

Obviously, w2popenid does exist, and Web2pyFetcher is in the file but
web2py chokes! But then I figured out if I restarted the server and
then first visited:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/provider/openid/id/test

Then it worked just fine!

So I am wondering if anyone can explain this bizarre behavior.

Note: the "cas" application version of w2popenid does not have a
Web2pyFetcher but the "provider" one does. This does not excuse Web2Py
though.
