Bug Description

Confirmed by SamYaple on IRC, at least some users cannot login to ask.openstack.org at the moment.

What happens is

1) Visit https://ask.openstack.org/en/account/signin/
2) Click Launchpad button
3) A yellow banner is displayed across the top of the page with the text: "OpenID https://login.launchpad.net/ is invalid"

The user never gets the opportunity to enter their login information, and the error appears even in a completely empty session (eg firefox private tab)

Something may have changed in the way Launchpad behaves. Evgeny enabled the generic OpenID provider and logging in using https://login.ubuntu.com as auth URL works fine.

I tried logging in using the default OpenID and providing https://launchpad.net/~smaffulli as URL, the authentication fails with message:

"Server denied check_authentication"

Solved, the authentication server changed the IP address, and the old one was in the /etc/hosts/
