BrowserID login doesn't work out of the box

[winks]

First I tried the heroku route, when it didn't work I tried to reproduce locally, but I can't login.

• :set administrator, "correctemail@example.org" is set
• "correctemail@example.org" works with the browserid demo, http://myfavoritebeer.org/

$ rbfu shotgun -o hostname config.ru Activated Ruby 1.9.3.

Open to all suggestions regarding debugging, especially if mongodb is already involved at this stage

Assuming it wasn't simply a typo in the issue's text body, you'll need to set the :administrator value like this:

:set administrator, "browser_id:correctemail@example.org"

It needs to include the browser_id: string because I'm planning on adding support for additional identity providers (Twitter, Facebook, Github etc.), allowing you to pick your preferred authorization scheme.

I'm closing this issue for now; feel free to reopen if this was a misunderstanding.

Yes, sorry, that was it. Looks great.

Mental note to self: Don't try weird things after midnight.

Always try weird things after midnight! :)

Glad to hear that did the trick.
