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.
