Thanks for the reply Stuart. Can you please provide a brief guidance of how it is supposed to work? If so this would be a real big help.

Just to give you a brief backgroud of what i have done:
I am using Moodle 1.9.7 and enabled Openid plug in with it. When i enter login id (openid) on Moodle login page, i am taken to my openid server where I am asked to enter some more information and then click on confirm button(to go to Moodle home page), but here I am redirected to Moodle's index page with an error message saying "Authentication failed"!!

I believe that i should be authenticated the next time when I login using openid as my account already exist in Moodle DB.
Please adivce if I am understanding this correctly and this is how it is supposed to work.

Thanks a lot.

Hey Moodle User,

FWIW, I *have* been able to use this plugin successfully with a Moodle 1.9.8 installation.

I've tested against a custom OpenID provider and also my launchpad.net OpenID account. In both cases authentication was successful and a new account was created associated with the OpenID I provided.

I haven't put this system into production or tested it thoroughly yet, but so far it's all working well.

Hi, i tried openid for moodle with moodle 1.9.9+ weekly and moodle 1.9.9. I am unable to login with the open Id. I tried with launchpad, wordpress and aol.

When I try login with aol, it did not redirect to AOL login screen and raised error saying "An error occurred while authenticating with your OpenID provider. Please check your OpenID URL and try again." I can able to login with the same url in another drupal instance which is having openID support.

When I try login with wordpress or launchpad, It redirected to their login screens and after I login successfully, It is redirecting to same login page. I could not finish login with these providers.

I tried to download moodle 1.9.8 but I could not find this version download on http://download.moodle.org/ page.
