Thanks, it works now.

I thought you would not need to create an additional account in the database before switching to OpenID authentication.

Hi Michael, you need to set up your tracks.tra.in account to use OpenID first to be able to use Google or Yahoo with tracks.tra.in.

First log in with your conventional password and go to http://tracks.tra.in/preferences, then below under “Your authentication” change your authentication type to open_id and your Identity URL should be set to http://me.yahoo.com/USERNAME.

I tested it with my Yahoo account just now and it worked. Let me know if you have any trouble!

Hi Kevin — sorry about that. I was playing with tuning some MySQL and Rails deployment settings and had to restart the server a number of times yesterday and today. A couple times Rails was down for a half minute or so & I’m sure that was frustrating, very sorry! Things should be running more smoothly again.

The site has been unreachable many times yesterday and today, what’s the status?

I’m trying to use OpenID to log into the system.

So with my yahoo account, I’ve entered yahoo.com in the box and I’m led to Yahoo servers to Accept the site has access to my data.

Then I’m redirected back to the tracks.tr.in login with this message.

Sorry, no user by that identity URL exists (https://me.yahoo.com
a/0vrRQqQRvvWFoQ.liGZ1JzjHZGcpsg–)

I’ve also tried pasting my Google account profile http: address in the login ID.
Both approaches return a no ID URL exists.

What could be the problem?

I’ve noticed an iritating problem with tracks.tra.in when using IE7/IE8. Actaully, it’s been going-on now for months, I usually just work around it by going to the mobile version of the website. When I try to edit an existing entry, I get a dialog that shows an unknown file type titled, “edit.” My options are FInd, Save, or Cancel. Please advise…

I’m using Outlook to send e-mail tasks to tracks. In the subjectfield I put the taskname + @context + !Project. But in some strange way Tracks does not recognize it and the task never ends up in my tasklist. It works allright when I send an email without context or project. Strange isn’t it ?
